The trial will be open, but Yury Rubtsou will be absent.

Viktar Rubtsou, son of political prisoner, informed Belarusian Documentation Center.

"We have poor information. Neither mother nor me have received any letters. In our turn, we sent him registered letters. Perhaps, my father is incarcerated. Otherwise, I have no more versions", he said.

Yanviha Rubtsova says her husband has been threatened with punitive confinement, he had violations. He was protesting against the fact that he "is forced to be in the cell that is like a toilet and take a bow to every person". Meanwhile, he pleads not guilty. Since July 1 Yury has gone on a hunger strike. The reason is the treatment and confinement conditions.

"We sent him a food parcel and transferred him money. Today I had a talk with the lawyer about the hearing of cassation appeal on July 24. The hearing will be open, but father will be absent. That is why we've decided not to go there (Rubtsou's family lives in Homel, he is Baranavichy now). The lawyer promised to visit him on July 24 and provide us with some information. Both mother and me send him letters regularly, but, unfortunately, it is useless. I do not think that the post is one to blame... Mother called at the remand prison, they said no one was on hunger strike... They have got some neck to say that it's better to ask him about it in letters... Our day begins with mail box check, for this reason such advice sounds like as a wipe", Viktar Rubtsou said.

Yury Rubtsou is born on July 29, he is to be 54. The address for congratulations: 225413 Brest region, Baranovichi, Brest street, 258, Investigation Cell No. 6.
