Young People Rally in Support of Church (Photo) 12:58, 18/04/2007
On April 16 at 8 p.m. young people gathered near the former buildings of Bernardine monastery and St. Josef’s church. They have chosen that place for holding a monthly action of solidarity, as the city authorities are going to start reconstruction of a Catholic sanctuary, which is a unique monument of history and culture. Every evening Catholics gather near the building of the church and they pray for its returning to the church.
The action lasted for several minutes. Young activists left lit candles near the monastery. In a few minutes riot policemen appeared.
Young people retreated towards the Orthodox cathedral. For some time riot policemen followed the activists, but nobody was detained.
