Vitsebsk oppositionists Barys Khamajda was mulcted 380 thousands (more than 176 USD). Policemen detained him on October 1 in front of the Vitsebsk executive committee, where he was selling a newspaper “Belorusskaya Delovaya Gazeta”. On his chest he had a little placard “Let’s not go to the deceitful referendum and pseudo-elections”.
In the police department, where a report was drawn up against Mr. Khamajda for unsanctioned picketing, he was taken to the Chyhunachny district court. But judge Alena Hrabianchuk refused to consider the case of his detention. However, unexpectedly she decided to finish the legal process, postponed on September 27, because the policemen had drawn up the papers the wrong way. Alena Hrabianchuk sentenced Barys Khamajda to a fine of 380 thousand rubles (more than 176 USD).
