What Has Happened To Detained Belarusian Oppositionist?

The family of Dzyanis Dzyanisau, an activist of the opposition United Civic Party, does not know what has happened to him after he was detained in Homel on February 16, RFE/RL's Belarus Service reported on February 26, quoting his mother, Raisa Dzyanisava. Dzyanisava said she was told by police that after his detention in Homel, her son was sent to a facility in Vitsebsk to undergo investigation. However, Dzyanisava has so far not been able to confirm this information. "I have written complaints to both Homel and Vitsebsk prosecutors. Why did they arrest him? But nobody has told me anything, they do not want to give any information at all," she told RFE/RL. JM
