Police find no proofs that Femen activists were kidnapped
No criminal case will be started in this regard.
The Yelsk department of internal affairs refused to investigate the fact of kidnapping of the Ukrainian citizens on January 18. BelaPAN has been informed by the press-center of Homel police that they found no materials which would confirm the fact of kidnapping and beating during the checking.
Let us remind you, activists of the female movement Femen Inna Shevchenko,
Olexandra Nemchinova and Oksana Shachko were found by the police in the
frontier zone in the village of Beki, Yelsk district, on December 20. They
informed that they had been detained at the Eastern bus station in Minsk on
December 19 by six men, who had failed to introduce themselves, pulled the
activists' caps on their eyes and drove them in an unknown direction. Before
this, the Ukrainian citizens had conducted an action near the KGB office.
According to the girls, they drove them to the woods, forced them to get undressed, threatened and humiliated them, forced them to hold posters with the fascist symbols, and poured "brilliant green" onto their heads. The men video-filmed everything, and then just left the girls in the woods.
