Police Lieutenant Colonel Mikalai Kazlou was interrogated

The Main Department of Internal Affairs of Minsk City Executive Committee at last conducted the check on the fact of falsification of the results of the early voting at the elections to the “parliament” in 2008.

Last week Police Lieutenant Colonel Mikalai Kazlou was invited for talks to the Main Department of Internal Affairs of Minsk City Executive Committee. His sensational testimony about how the results of the early voting were faked at the metropolitan polling station № 463 in Staravilensky district № 105 during the elections to the parliament in 2008, “Narodnaya Volya” published on October, 19. Mikalai Kazlou saw members of the electoral commission throwing bulletins into ballot boxes after the polling station had been closed and boxes had been sealed.

When the recognition of Mikalai Kazlou had been published, the Chairman of the United Civil Party, Anatol Lyabedzka, who ran for deputy in this constituency, filed an application to the General Prosecutor’s Office, demanding “to attract the organizers and executors of the falsification of voting results to criminal responsibility”. ”But, for some reason, the Prosecutor’s Office considered that it would be enough to conduct a check on this fact, and it was directed to ... the Ministry of Internal Affairs. In fact, to those, who covered the falsification data two years ago.

The check was carried out by a Police Major of the Main Department of Internal Affairs of Minsk City Executive Committee Maksim Zinchanka. “The oddest thing is – Mikalai Kazlou shared his impressions - Zinchanka is a subordinate of Maksim Gryshchanka - the same one, to whom I reported the fraud on September 27, 2008. I think that this fact speaks eloquently about the “objectivity” of the ongoing inspection.
