Uladzimer Kazeka, member of the Belarusian Popular Front party from Drahichyn, found his car burnt down, he was also accused of stealing of invoices and hunted for two days before Freedom day.
– A padlock in my garage was sawed, and my car was burnet down. I appealed to the militia. A criminal case was initiated on the fact, but the y didn’t find anything. I’ve got information from my friends that it was organized by secret services. I was said they would continue to use such forms of pressure, if I continued to deal in politics and didn’t refuse to participate in the autumn parliamentary election, - Mr Uladzimer tells.
Mr Uladzimer carries out beekeeping and cooperates with Invet firm, trading in honey. Staff-members of the firm have recently phoned to Mr Kazeka and said their chief accountant had been fined of 30 million. The inspection gave them understand that he was fined for cooperation with Mr Kazeka (for the fact they allowed Kazeka allegedly “steal invoices”). The firm finds the punishment to be absurd and is going to appeal against it.
Drahichyn militiamen closely follow the life of Belarusian oppositionists. 22 March Mr Petraeu, head of the Drahichyn criminal investigation office, called on Uladzimer Kazeka’s mobile phone, registered to another person, by the way, and asked him to come to the militia department on 23 March.
– I understood they want “isolate” me before Freedom Day (it happened so before) and decided not to go to militia. I was said they were searching for me at different addresses and at my relatives’. But after 25 March, militiamen suddenly lost interest in my person, - Uladzimer Kazeka tells milinkevich.org.
