Lukashenka's terror in Minsk

[Alina Wyman]

Dear colleagues,

I would like to turn your attention to yet another instance of
Lukashenko's brutality against the Belarusian people. Yesterday presidential
candidate Uladzimer Niakliaeu was attacked and beaten on the head by
Lukashenko's forces as he was making his way to the Kastrychnitskaya Square
to protest the falsifications of Belarusian elections. Three other
presidential candidates, Andrey Sannikau, Ryhor Kastusyou and Vital'
Rymasheuski, were beaten and arrested. Candidate Mikola Statkevich was
arrested. Uladzimer Niakliaeu was later obducted from the intensive care
unit, where he was treated for head trauma, and taken to prison. Countless
men and women were brutally beaten, as more than twenty thousand protested
the massive falsifications of Belarusian elections in Minsk. Among those
beaten were journalists Irina Khalip ("Novaya Gaseta") and Radina ("Charter
97"). The list goes on...

Here are some videos featuring yesterday's events:
