An activist of the entrepreneurs movement Ilia Dabratvor was detained in Minsk.

For what the charter97.org web-site has learnt, on Friday 30 August he was riding a metro with an unwrapped white-red-white flag. This is how the activist welcomed the release of the Young Front leader Dzmitry Dashkievich. At Uruchcha metro station Ilia Dabratvor was detained by policemen.

Now the entrepreneur is in jail in Akrestsina Street. He will be put on trial on Monday. It is yet unknown what Ilia Dabratvor is accused of.
