Repression in Minsk,Belarus
Today (3-rd of September 2010) at morning our friends and comrades were
kidnapped by police(KGB). Six people are missing.
kidnapped by police(KGB). Six people are missing.
We manage to get know about
their kidnapping only several hours later from their neighbors which
said that unknown people in police uniform took away everybody situating
the apartment. Fate of these people is still unknown this moment. Nobody
responds to cell telephone calls. Any attempts to get know something
about their location in Minsk police departments give no result, cause
cops deny any involvement in this event. Apartment of another not
detained activist is kept under observation by police patrol, and these
cops don’t disclose the reasons for their presence.
All these people are social activists, participating in various social
movements aimed at protecting human rights, workers rights and freedom
of access to information. We believe these abductions are directly
related to the season of “elections” in Belarus, because every time they
take place, there is increased repressions of social activists by
authorities. They tries to isolate people from access to any unwanted
information that way.
We belive it is kidnapping, because there is no information about the
fates of people and reasons for their detention still. Such actions are
a serious violation of the rights and freedoms of every person. We urge
all unindifferent people to help in finding our comrades, and in media
coverage of this incident. If you have information on the case or can
somehow help us write to
antiatombel@riseup.net.
It’s obvious for us that the trigger for repression was the incident
near the Russian Embassy in Minsk, occurred on August 30. A pressrelease
of previously unknown anonymous group of anarchists, declared publicly
its responsibility for the attack, followed in two days, gave the secret
services a convenient excuse for the actions of intimidation.
UPDATE at 23:35: Location of the detainees is still unknown. However, it
was reported that phones, computers and various literature were
confiscated from them. And police is in search of 5 activists.
Keep track of updates.
Friends and comrades of kidnapped.

Repression in Minsk, Weißrussland
Alle Anwesenden die in diesem Moment im Apartment waren wurden zum GUBOP Innenministerium gebracht um sie zu befragen. Das Apartment wurde durchsucht, fünf Computer, zwei Laptops, Handys, Geld, Poster und Magazine wurden beschlagnahmt. Einer der Beschuldigten wurde als ein Augenzeuge in dem Fall der Attacke gegen die Russische Botschaft nach 19 Stunden freigelassen. Sechs andere - Igor Bogachek, Valeria Khotina, Serge Slusar, Nicholas Dedok, Alexei Zhingerovsky and Alexander Franzkevich - sind immernoch im Internierungszentrum von Minsk in der Okrestsin Straße. Verwandte und Freunde sind nicht in der Lage Kontakt zu ihnen aufzubauen. Die Maximalzeit der Internierung ohne Anklage beträgt in Weißrussland eigentlich 72 Stunden.
Am 4. September wurde ein weiterer Aktivist interniert, seine Wohnung wurde ebenfalls durchsucht. Nach der Vernehmung wurde der Internierte wieder freigelassen.
Immernoch unbekannt ist der Aufenthaltsort von Anton Kalenkovich
Soziale Aktivist_Innen von Bullen verschleppt
Alle diese Leute sind Soziale Aktivist_Innen, die sich in diverse soziale Bewegungen einbringen die darauf abzielen die Menschenrechte, Arbeiter_Innen-Rechte und freien Zugang zu Informationen zu gewährleisten. Wir glauben das diese Entführungen in direkter Verbindung zur "Wahl"-Zeit in Weißrussland steht, weil jedesmal wenn diese stattfinden, gibt es eine erhöhte Repression gegen Soziale Aktivist_Innen durch die Autoritäten. Sie versuchen damit Menschen davon abzuhalten unerwünschte Fakten zu erfahren.
Wir glauben das es Kidnapping ist, weil es keine Informationen über den Aufenthalt unserer Leute und keinen Grund für ihre Festsetzung gibt. Solche Aktionen sind ein ein ernsthafter Bruch der Rechte und Freiheiten jedweder Person. Wir drängen alle noch nicht gänzlich abgestumpften Menschen uns zu helfen unsere Genoss_Innen zu finden und in den Medien über diesen Vorgang zu berichten. Falls ihr Informationen habt über den Fall oder ihr uns irgendwie weiterhelfen könnte schreibt uns bitte an
Für uns ist es naheliegend das der Auslöser für diese Repression der Zwischenfall in der Nähe der Russischen Botschaft in Minsk ist welches sich am 30.August ereignete. In einer Presse-Veröffentlichung [Medienhetzkampagne, der ÜbersetzA] gegen vorher nicht bekannten autonomen Gruppen von Anarchist_Innen, deklarierten sie öffentlichen ihre Verantwortung für diese Attacken, zwei Tage lang um dem Geheimdienst eine bequeme Entschuldigung für ihren Akt der Einschüchterung zu geben.
Ergänzung um 23:35 Uhr. Der Aufenthaltsort ist immernoch unbekannt. Wie auch immer, es wurde berichtet das Telefone, Computers und verschiedene Literatur von ihnen konfisziert wurde. Die Polizei fahndet nach 5 Aktivist_Innen.
Augen auf für weitere Infos.
Die Freunde und Genoss_Innen der gekidnappten.
