Belarus: KGB calls people for "private" talks

A month after the protests in Copenhagen the belarussian govermental security services at the request of Interpol started to conduct “personal” interviews with people who have been detained in Denmark during the summit on climate change.

Many people who read Indymedia, or are just interested in what is happening in the world, know what happened in December in Copenhagen. The news of the majority of media companies (even corporate) were full of headlines about the incredible human rights violations commited by cops on the streets of the Danish capital during the protests.

For us, it has long been no secret that the authorities in case of danger could prim so-called civil liberties in order to preserve their status. In Copenhagen, the western “democratic” machine showed what it could do (such things occure very frequently in the United States and other countries, but has not been given such publicity because of the little scale of what has been happening)

All could be well gone, and people could continue to believe in democracy and those who protested could continue their resistance against the authorities, if one thing didn’t happen: during the arrest, many detainees were photographed and cops collected their personal data – in general, it is not surprising, every time you are detained, the cops are trying to gather as much information about you as they can – in order further to send the request to Interpol. Interpol, continuing the investigation, referred the inquiries to governmental security services of countries from which the detainees came. So the Ukrainian security services started to check the local papers submitted to the consulate for visas of the detainees and inviting them for “personal” conversations to questions about the reasons of the trip.

Also the Interpol didn’t miss the Belarusan citizens with their desire to get to the truth. Upon request, our “valiant” KGB (Governmental Security Committee) agents began to rummage in the lives of people detained in Copenhagen with the same desire as the Ukrainian security services did. Less than a month passed since the protests, as some of the detained citizens of Belarus were invited the to the KGB for all the same “private” conversations.

After all, our security servicess have work out somehow their money, even fulfilling the requests of European agencies.
