59-year-old pensioner Natalia Khomich was arrested in Belarus for unauthorized picket because of jewelry on the window. This is reported by Telegram-channel TUT.BY, with reference to the message of the Spring Human Rights deprived in Belarus.
Early in the morning of June 23, police officers were coming to a woman due to the woven on the window of white-red and white hearts. Apartments have continued for about three hours, as a result, the whole technique and the hearts themselves were seized.
Khomich condemned for 15 days at part 1 of Article 24.23 of the Code of Administrative Offenses (Administrative Code) of Belarus (“Violation of the Organization or conduct of mass events”). The court decision was made only from the second time.
Evgeny Babak arrested in Belarus earlier in Belarus. He was accused of “picketing by placement on the balcony” White-Red and White Flag.
One of the symbols of protests in Belarus is a white-red and white banner (Bel. “Bel-Chyrvona-Bella Citguod”, BCB). In 1991-1995, it was the state flag of the republic. At the 1995 referendum, most Belarusians voted to replace him with a red-green, resembling the flag of the Belarusian SSR. In January, the President of Belarus, Alexander Lukashenko, approved the amendments to the Administrative Code, according to which citizens will be discharged for the use of this symbolism.
