Police Conduct Mass Visits to Relatives of Political Emigres in Vitsyebsk

Last week, police officers visited relatives of at least four political emigres from Vitsyebsk, the Telegram channel “Vitsyebsk, I’m Out Walking! | Vitsyebsk News” reports.

“Four political emigres have been identified so far, but the operation may be much larger in scope. These appear to be planned search activities — similar mass visits took place in mid-April. As with the spring visits, the current questioning was accompanied by demands that some relatives provide DNA samples,” the channel notes.
