Former political prisoner Uladzimir Yaromenak arrested for 3 days

The ex-political prisoner is under preventive supervision now. In February he was sentenced to 12 days of administrative detention for breaking the supervision regime.

Nasta Loyka: "In prison, he filed an appeal against the sentence. The appeal was considered on February 26. Minsk city court abolished this sentence as there had been procedural violations in it - the court trial was carried out without the activist - and sent the case for a re-consideration. So, the re-consideration took place today. They added two more facts of breaking the preventive supervision to the initial case, and considered the three offences at a time. They sentenced him to 5 days of detention for each offence. It made 15 days in total, and he has already served 12 of them. Thus, he is supposed to serve 3 more days of detention for breaking the preventive supervision rules".

The Young Front activist will be released on Saturday, March 23, right before the Freedom Day celebration.
