“Miss Belarus-2008” Olga Khizhinkova told about the bullying that she experienced in the detention center in Zhodino, where she was serving an administrative arrest. The conversation with her was published by the YouTube-channel “Krasava”.
According to Khizhinkova, “women without a fixed abode” were moved to her. One of them developed an epileptic seizure and developed delirium tremens.
“A week before my release, the heating was turned off and the mattresses were taken away. During the week we all slept on the cold floor,” added the winner of the beauty pageant.
Khizhinkova was detained at a protest in Minsk in early November.
Later it became known that she was arrested under the administrative article “Violation of the order of organizing or holding mass events.” She was released at the end of December.
Residents of Belarus staged a massive flash mob in support of Khizhinkova. They published photos of their legs in tights and stockings against the background of Conte packages: “Miss Belarus-2008” has been the face of the brand for many years.
