Dzmitry Zavadski

On 7 July, 2000, 27-year-old Belarusian citizen Dzmitry Zavadski, who worked as a personal cameraman of Belarusian president Alyaksandr Lukashenka in 1994-1997, disappeared without a trace. His car was found in Minsk airport.

On January 3, the apartment of the Belarusian human rights activist Aleh Volchak was searched. The police were looking for traces of a woman who was an acquaintance of his brother. However, Volchak names the house-checks unfair and demands an apology.

The Belarusian Investigative Committee has turned down the appeal by Svyatlana Zavadskaya to resume the investigation into the abduction of her husband, cameraman Dzmitry Zavadski.
