Court decision has not been announced to youth activists yet

Central District Court of Minsk has not pronounced its decision to 10 participants of January protest actions in Minsk yet. ERB has contacted a human rights defender Alena Tankachova. She says that only the accused, their relatives and some representatives of diplomatic missions have been allowed to enter the court room.

From 50 to 70 people who were going to support the youth activists are remaining outside beyond the line of special police troops. Journalists have not been allowed to enter either and they still have no information about the time when the court decision will be discussed.
