The site of the Minsk police now has a report that explains the brutal detentions at Saturday’s concert ‘Miensk Edge Day’.
According to the report, the police had received an anonymous call telling them that drugs would be distributed at the event and that there are minors.
“Because of a large number of people attending the event, we used the police officers from the local precinct and Minsk riot police. After the police arrived, the concert was stopped, some visitors were taken to the local police station. After their identities were established, they were released,” said the statement.
A few days ago, visitors of the ‘Miensk Edge Day’ were beaten and tortured. Later, half of the audience was released in the city, and the other half was taken to a police station, where they were released late in the evening. Ten people were taken to the Akrestsina prison.
