No permission for pro-Lukashenka picket in Mahilou

Mahilyou authorities have not allowed a picket in support of Alyaksandr Lukashenka, civil activist Alyaksei Paulouski reports. 44 inhabitants of Mahilyou initiated the picket, he noted.

The activists were going to support the freeloaders tax, ‘Lukashenka’s fifth term of presidency’ and nominate the Belarusian leader for the Nobel Peace Prize for helping stop the conflict in Ukraine.

The picket was to be held in Lenin Square in the centre of the city but officials said that such pickets could only be held in the stadium Himik in the outskirts of Mahilyou.
