Alyaksandr Mendzeleu, chief of the republican Traffic Militia, said the actions by the traffic officers were unprofessional and they had been dismissed in the connection with the accident. But as it has been found out, the people allegedly dismissed, know nothing about it.
Alyaksandr Mendzeleu, chief of the republican Traffic Militia, said on the press conference the actions of the officers had been unprofessional and said they had been fired.
“The officials who are responsible for professional training of those, who participated in the stopping, namely chief of the Traffic Militia of the Kastrychnitski District Internal Affairs Department of Minsk and chief of the Slutsk Internal Affairs Department have been dismissed from offices. Officers who took part in the detention, in particular traffic militia officers of Slutsk and Kastrychnitski Internal Affairs Departments have been suspended from their posts until official investigation ends,” the “Euroradio ” quotes the official.
However, nobody in Slutsk Traffic Militia Department knows about the resignation of their chief and officers. According to Dzmitry Semibratau, spokesman for the traffic militia department in Slutsk, “at the moment, none of the traffic militia officers at the militia department in Slutsk has been fired. We have received no orders to remove our officers from their positions so far. No inspections have been appointed. But I can’t say for sure there will be no investigation.”
Slutsk traffic militia officers used Russia-made car VAZ-2110 to chase a drunken driver, speeding at 180km/h. According to Dzmitry Semibratau, this vehicle is able to achieve even a greater speed. In general, there are 6 vehicles in the fleet of the traffic militia in Slutsk: two VAZ-2110, two VAZ-2109 and two Opels.
By the way, as the press secretary said, during the chase on 2 March , the passengers in the violator's vehicle and the driver himself were showing obscene signs to traffic militia officers.
