Franak Vyachorka, “Moladz BNF” (the youth organisation of the Belarusian Popular Front) has been detained in Rakau (Valozhyn district).
As the BelaPAN was told by Franak Vyachorka, on January 8 in the morning two policemen stormed the private house of his friend were he was resting. They pushed away owners of the house and started search in the house. They showed arrest warrant to F. Vyachorka. As said by the activist, they want to take him to the military enlistment office in Minsk.
“However, I hadn’t received any warrants from the military enlistment office. I received the last summons to the republican military hospital on December 22. However I could not come there because of my state of health, and the military enlistment office was informed about that,” F. Vyachorka underlined.
On July 16 a medical commission of the military enlistment office of Savetski district of Minsk recognized the young activist ineligible for military service because of his health condition. At the same time, regional medical commission challenged that decision and sent him for a check-up to a military hospital. As a result, deferment of military service till March 2009 was granted to him.
