An activist was detained in St. Petersburg with a sign saying “Lukashenko, let go!”

In St. Petersburg, at the consulate of the Republic of Belarus, during single pickets of solidarity with the protest action of "non-parasites" on March 17, an activist was detained with a poster "Let Lukashenko go!". This was reported to OVD-Info by eyewitnesses.

The policeman who approached the girl asked her to show her passport, however, noticing two more activists who had pasted leaflets on the consulate door, he ran after them and tried to detain them, but to no avail, they managed to escape. The girl with the poster was nevertheless detained - two patrols drove up to her, one of which was called by a "caring citizen", who said that the CIA paid for the action.

“All the police officers who arrived introduced themselves and did not mind when they were filmed. In the department, after rewriting the data and identifying the girl, they demanded a brief written explanation from her about the single-person picket, to which she agreed. Having learned from the passport about the place of birth - Ukraine, they began to ask questions that were not relevant. “And how is it correct“ in ”Ukraine or“ in ”?, -“ In ”. - "And I want" on "". They were interested in how often she visits the country and whether relatives remained there. The activist refused to answer these questions. After 15 minutes in the 76th precinct, she was released,” the activists told OVD-Info.
