The outer door of the apartment in Hrodna, belonging to Andrzej Poczobut, a journalist of Polish newspaper “Gazeta Wyborcza” was cut by unknown.
Besides, as said by Andrzej Poczobut, an unknown man was calling to his 8-year-old daughter several times. The journalist said he would make an application to police, and switched off the phone. On the next day it turned out that there were three more calls from the same phoe number in the night.
Besides, Andrzej Poczobut receives calls on the landline. “When I pick up the phone, nobody answers, there is silence,” the journalist said. Thanks to a telephone answering machine he knows from which phone numbers calls were received. But when he called there himself, nobody answered, and the mobile phone which number had been registered too, was immediately switched off.
Andrzej Poczobut says the atmosphere in his family is nervous, his daughter is frightened. He believes that the pressure on his family could be connected to his journalistic activities and to his active participation in the work of the Union of Poles headed by Anzelika Borys, which is not recognized by the Belarusian authorities as before.
