Leader of “Grodno Choice” Movement Goes on Hunger-Strike 12:01, 31/01/2003
Leader of the “Grodno Choice” movement, painter Dmitry Ivanovsky was sentenced to 15 days of arrest for participating in the entrepreneurs’ protest. On January 28 the Grodno businessmen gathered on the Lenin’s square and voted in favor of the strike, due to be held on February 1. The jury regarded the action as an unsanctioned meeting and declared that Ivanovsky actively engaged in it. A few months ago Ivanovsky was sentenced to 10 days of arrest for his part in the previous protest “Chain of those who care”. And so the punishment was the highest now – 15 days. The accused man intends to hold hunger-strike just as back in the past.
