No permit for Chernobyl pickets in Hrodna
Hrodna residents Vadzim Saranchukou and Mikola Lemyanouski saw their applications to organize Chernobyl-related pickets on April 26 turned down.
The authorities explained that the norms of the legislation had not been fulfilled in their applications, Lemyanouski told Radio Liberty. In particular, there was no information required for conducting mass events.
Lemyanouski and Saranchukou say that they wanted to conduct their pickets in a place specially assigned by the City Executive Committee for such events. However, Hrodna authorities have not allowed such events for over 10 years.
They are not going to complain about the actions of the City Executive Committee because it is clear that it will yield no result, Saranchukou noted.
