Anatol Lyabedzka: Anything at all is possible

The period under guard for Anatol Lyabedzka has been extended till May 20.

The politician does not have any other information about his possible ups and downs of fortune. “Anything at all is possible,” Anatol Lyabedzka has written to his family.

Last weekend the wife and the son of the leader of the United Civil Party received thee letters from the KGB jail. These letters were written by Lyabedzka on March 15-17.

“Now letters from you are delivered regularly. It is a good sign,” Anatol Lyabedzka writes to his relatives. “But at the same time, I am asking you to be attentive and security-conscious: on the road, in a lift, in communications with strangers. Now for actions and deeds which would have negative results are needed [by the authorities].

How do I estimate the future? I have a document, a decree on my detention in custody until May 20. I do not have any other information. Anything at all is possible.

I have little information, I can even say it is scanty. Yet, I know about Japanese Chernobyl and the civil war in Libya due to a FM radio station, which could be listened to during the walk. So in general, I am stewing in your own juice, in my thoughts and conversations with my neighbours. Sometimes some rumours filter their way to us. But these are rumours…

My staying power is not limitless, but it allows me to overcome all difficulties, which have happened and may happen, with dignity, to preserve self-respect and adherence to my principles. I have a clean conscience,” the website of the party, ucpb.org, quotes Anatol Lyabedzka.
