New criminal case for political graffiti started in Minsk

Minsk Pershamaiski District police have started a criminal case connected with political graffiti. A youth activist Ruslan Matsveyeu has been interrogated in connection with it. The guy was interrogated as a witness, but he was also fingerprinted and had to give his saliva for a DNA test. He was also asked to go through lie detection.

According to Radio “Liberty”, political inscriptions appeared on the building of Pershamaiski District Court on the night of March 12.

Let us remind you that Artur Finkevich stood trial for political graffiti in 2006. He was sentenced to imprisonment and was sent to serve it in Mahileu special commandant's office.
