On May 16, the publishing house opened a bookstore in Minsk. State propagandists Lyudmila Gladka from SB. Belarus Today and Ryhor Azaronak from STB asked provocative questions and accused the bookstore of holding a nationalistic stance. The propagandists were followed by militia officers who conducted a search. As a result, 200 books were confiscated, and 15 of them were taken away “for examination.”<\/p>\n
On May 16, Andrej Janu\u0161kievi\u010d was arrested after a search in a bookstore together with Nasta Karnackaja, a popularizer of the Belarusian literature. After the arrest, Andrej Janu\u0161kievi\u010d spent the night at the Pier\u0161amajski Militia Department.<\/p>\n
On May 17, Andrej Janu\u0161kievi\u010d was sentenced to 10 days of administrative arrest under Art. 19.1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses (minor hooliganism), which is widely used for politically motivated arrests.<\/p>\n
