The report indicates that three students, Vladislav Kalkov, Sofia Marhunova and Stanislav Sianiukevich, have been detained for 15 days and Kriscina Miranenka for 14 days. They were charged with disobedience to a legal order or an officer’s claim.

Among the conference participants initially detained were Coordinating Council members Vitalis Rymašeuskis and Andrejus Jahoravas.

“What happened is not only arbitrariness, but also great stupidity, because this union works quite legally,” said V. Rymašeuskis.

The Coordination Council announced that the SPB, together with its lawyers, would appeal against these court decisions and transmit all the information to “international organizations, including the International Labor Organization (ILO)”.

Belarus has been plagued by massive protests for several months against the results of the August 9 presidential elections, announced by authoritarian President Alexander Lukashenko, who has led the country since 1994.

Her opponents say the elections were rigged and that the real winner is political rookie Sviatlana Cichanouskaya, who ran in place of her imprisoned husband.

Belarusian security forces have cracked down on protesters, detained them and forced opposition leaders to flee the country.

The protesters demand the resignation of Lukashenko, the release of political prisoners and new elections. With the force structures fiercely suppressing the protests, they moved from the streets to the courtyards and take place in various districts of Minsk.
