As Radio Svaboda informs, Radzivonchyk was detained by policemen in his native town on January 11. He was taken to a police department though he had health complaints. Later an emergency ambulance was called in there. However, after a medical check in the hospital Radzivonchyk was taken to the court and then to the court. Mr Radzivonchyk asked to invite a lawyer, that is why the consideration of the case was postponed for January 12.
