Campaign against tortures in prisons started in Belarus 1

8:50, — Politics

The democratic forces of Belarus have started a campaign for creating due conditions in the detention center in Akrestsin Street in Minsk. Today’s conditions of incarceration of mostly political prisoners are more like tortures, as said by human rights watchdogs.

The beginning of the campaign for establishing decent incarceration conditions in the detention center in Akrestsin Street in Minsk has been announced by Anatol Lyabedzka, the leader of the United Civil Party, who was recently released from this detention center after an administrative arrest for participation in a protest rally of small businessmen on January 10 in Minsk, Deutsche Welle informs.

As said by Anatol Lyabedzka, this campaign is necessary firstly because the requirements of the establishing the conditions for the arrested, are not fulfilled.

As a lawyer Valyantsin Stefanovich stresses, Belarusian penal system hasn’t been changed since the time of the Soviet Union.

“These are remnants of the old Stalinist-Soviet system, where a person was treated like trash, like dirt. Nobody told about any standards or individual sleeping places in that time,” the human rights activist believes.
