Siarhej Kavalenka released pre-term
An opposition member from Vitsebsk thinks that his hunger-strike and a number of complaints to the public prosecutor's office became the reason for this.
He was supposed to serve 12 more days of administrative detention upon the court's sentence.
On April 8 the police convoyed him to the detention center right after he had discharged from the cardiological unit of the hospital where he had been as a patient.
"A mobile phone of one of the policemen rang literally on the prison steps, and after a short conversation he told me I was free until my complaints to the public prosecutor's office were considered. I think my hunger-strikes of protest, announced on March 25 and on April 1, also influenced the situation", — Kavalenka has told to "Radio Liberty".
