Hundreds of posters with information about abducted Belarusians were pasted on the 8th of July in Minsk center by activists of European Belarus campaign.

Posters with photos of oppositionists Yury Zakharanka, Viktar Hanchar, Anatol Krasouski abducted in 1999 and journalist Zmitser Zavadski, who disappeared 10 years ago, appeared in Victory Square, near Academy of Science, in Nyamiha and Kalvaryiskaya Streets, Independence and Pushkinski Avenues, and other places.

The posters depicted photos, information about the abducted persons, and an inscription “We remember”.

On July 4, Russian NTV channel told the truth about political disappearances and killings of oppositionists in Belarus. The programme “Chrezvychainoye Proisshestviye” (Emergency Event) on NTV channel showed the film “Godbatka” telling about the mysterious death of vice speaker of the Supreme Council of Belarus Henadz Karpenka, abductions and killings of former interior minister Yury Zakharanka, vice speaker of the Supreme Council, former head of the Central Election Commission Viktar Hanchar, journalist Zmitser Zavadski, businessman and public figure Anatol Krasouski. The film shows archive interviews with the abducted oppositionists and their relatives and says directly about involvement of the Belarusian authorities in elimination of their political opponents.

Earlier, these facts were published by the Belarusian media in the report by Christos Pourgourides, a PACE special rapporteur.
