Head of the department of ideology and youth affairs of Hrodna Executive Committee Vital Mamachkin has shared his opinion about the incident.
The policemen’s actions were not directed against Victar Martsinovich, the official told Radio Liberty:
“The problem was not about the writer and his book. The place where the event was being held had not been commissione so far. We warned them about it many times. It is the problem of the local parish of the Roman Catholic Church and Priest Krot was aware of it. We have more questions about the religious activities,” Vital Mamachkin said.
The Hrodna ideologist added that the police ‘cut it too fat’.
Hrodna presentation of Victar Martsinovich’s book Language was disrupted by the police – they detained the writer for some time.
