Belarusian ex-presidential hopeful walks free

Ex- presidential candidate in Belarus Vladimir Neklyayev and the wife of another hopeful - Andrei Sannikov - Irina Khalip, have been released from prison, Neklyayev's defense lawyer said on Saturday.

Neklyayev and Khalip are facing charges of complicity in the mass-scale riots in the capital Minsk in the wake of the recent presidential elections that secured a new, fourth, term for the incumbent Alexander Lukashenko.
