Belarus starts legal proceedings against Lukashenko critics | News | DW | 21.12.2020 (sinks further into inhumane autocracy)

Svetlana Tichanowskaja und Maria Kolesnikowa

Belarus opposition leaders Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya, Olga Kovalkova, Maxim Znak, Maria Kolesnikova, Sergei Dylevsky and others are being investigated in relation to forming an “extremist association,” Belarus’ Public Prosecutor’s Office said on Monday.

The office accused the group of forming a “conspiracy” with the objective of seizing control via a coup, the news agency DPA reported.

The criminal proceedings are widely considered as politically motivated as strongman Alexander Lukashenko seeks to silence his opponents.

Government critic Kolesnikova has been in custody since September. The 38-year-old has said security officers put a bag over her head during her arrest and told her she would be taken out of the country “alive or in bits.”

The Joshua Bell Experiment (Video)

Bombay Ficus

Over ten years ago, a short, unassuming article was published in one of America’s leading newspapers, the Washington Post. It was about a social experiment that highlighted some harsh truths about the society we live in. Most of the mid-level bureaucrats disembark at L’Enfant Plaza station, located in the heart of federal Washington. On Friday, 12 January 2007, as people slurped coffee and scarfed down doughnuts, as they scurried off to work, an inconspicuous man, in jeans and a T-shirt, stood next to a dustbin inside the station playing a violin.
