Belarusian Authorities Ban Young Oppositionists From Travelling Abroad

Zmitser Dashkevich, leader of the unregistered organization Youth Front, was prevented on February 2 from traveling to Lithuania, Belapan and RFE/RL's Belarus Service reported. The authorities recently released Dashkevich from a correctional facility before the end of the 18-month term he was serving for heading an unregistered organization. Dashkevich was traveling to Vilnius, where he intended to resume studying at the Vilnius Teachers' Training University. Belarusian border guards ordered Dashkevich to get off the bus, claiming that he is listed in a database of people prohibited from leaving Belarus. Officers told Dashkevich that he should ask the Minsk district court, which convinced him, for an explanation as to how long he will be on the list. AM
