Wives appeal to EU for release of Belarus political prisoners

They remind that the Young Front (registered in Czech Republic) leader Zmitser Dashkevich and ex-presidential candidate Mikalaj Statkevich were arrested two years ago and are still behind the bars.

The political prisoners' relatives note that both prisoners suffer from horrible confinement conditions. After arrest, they got the status of "malicious rule breakers" and were transferred to the reinforced-security prisons.

"We are asking you to help us to get our beloved people back - sign our petition to the to the heads of the EU member states governments with an appeal to continue their efforts aimed at release and rehabilitation of Zmitser Dashkevich, Mikalaj Statkevich and other political prisoners", - say Adamovich and Palazhanka.
