In Mozyr policemen interrogated the former minor prisoner of a Nazi camp, a member of the Belarusian Communist party Uladzimer Zhogla was interrogated, and his saliva test taken.

“I answered that I was in my summer cottage in the village of Matrunki. After that a doctor took from beneath my both cheeks a saliva test with cotton wool tampons. And when my mug shot was taken under some number, I couldn’t stand it any more. Tears started rolling. I haven’t faced such a humiliation since the time in the death camp,” Zhogla told to Radio Svaboda.
Members of the Belarusian Communist party, pensioners Yury Bokau and Yauhen Brusnitsyn from Mozyr were taken saliva test as well.
