Dzianis Kazakevich: Western Politicians Must Step In To Help Mikhail Zhamchuzhny
DZIANIS KAZAKEVICH

The courageous struggle of the political prisoner must be supported at all the levels.

Activist Dzianis Kazakevich urged Belarusians and Western politicians to fight for the release of political prisoner Mikhail Zhamchuzhny:

"Mikhail Zhamchuzhny is a Belarusian political prisoner, human rights activist and candidate of technical sciences. Since August, Mikhail has almost never left the punitive confinement. He somehow manages not to break down and continues to keep his dignity. Nevertheless, the administration of the awful colony in Horki is set on breaking his spirit at any cost and it isn’t going back on it.

Mikhail Zhamchuzhny’s life is in danger. He has managed to smuggle out a message: "Whatever may come to me, I will not hang myself, I'm still strong."

I urge you to pass on these words to Western politicians and diplomats who deal with Belarus and ask them to step in. You can do it via Twitter, you can write emails to the embassy. It's not much, but your decision to do something might become decisive for saving Mikhail's life. Things are very serious in this case.

Here are the samples of tweets.
