Solidarity action takes place near Akrestsina prison

Several dozens of relatives and friends of the people who are serving administrative detentions after the peaceful protest action gathered together at 6 p.m. near the detention center in Minsk. Politicians and people who care joined them.  Aliaksandr Milinkevich and Ryhor Kastusyou came to the action. The ex-presidential candidate informed live on air on the European Radio for Belarus that he still did not know in which prison they kept his son. 

Young people were standing in a chain holding candles. They sang songs and after that they arranged a whole firework of fly flaps and petards.

Approximately half an hour after the action started, the policemen stated it was illegal and called on the participants to leave. Mikhail Pashkevich was detained after the action. The policemen did not pay any attention to Ivan Shyla, who was walking together with Pashkevich.
