Trials of participants of protest actions against benefits cancellation are taking place in Central District of Minsk.
Pavel Chumakou, Vadzіm Baravіk, Alyaksandr Baradzenka, Pavel Vіltouskі and Pavel Markevіch are waiting for courts decisions. Radio Liberty has informed about it. Let us remind you that a youth action “Burial of benefits” took place in the capital on June 1.

About 200 people took part in it. Young people were going to walk along Nyamiha holding privilege tickets and a coffin. But they were attacked by special police troops near the bridge across Nyamiha. Some people were severely beaten and 6 people were arrested.

They had been kept in the confinement cell in Akrestsina Street before the trials strated. The young activists are accused of organization of an unapproved action.
