Alyaksandr Skrabets, who is on hunger strike for the third week, demanding release of political prisoner Alyaksandr Kazulin, has lost his conscience for a while. His elder brother Syarhei told it to radio Svaboda.

“The relatives were going to call for emergency, but he came around and forbid to do so,” Skrabets said.

Syarhei Skrabets says his brother lost 20 kilograms during these two weeks:

“In spite of this we will continue the action. I have a great experience in this matter. I have explained my brother today what he should do to bear hunger strike easier.”
