English anarchists call for support for belarusian political prisoners

27.03.2012, 10:54

British anti-fascists and anarchists remind us of their like-minded people in Belarus, who are now in prison.

Of the 7 prisoners, only one is held in Russia. He is expected to be out on parole soon. Rest of the six prisoners are from Belarus, they were all jailed last years for suspected insurgent activities against the Lukashenko regime. Five of them are anarchists, whereas sixth, Jauhen Vas'kovich, is a Christian democrat who decided to join with anarchist activists.

Note that Belarus is a bilingual country, official and preferred names of most of the arrested are in Belarusian language, thus we list prisoners by their Belarusian names. But as prisoner registry of prisons is organised in Russian language, we list addresses with Russian names, when they differ from Belarusian names. Below,
