Several people were detained by Belarusian security forces during a rave near Stoubtsy held on the night of June 21–22. Those detained were sentenced to administrative arrests ranging from 10 to 15 days, Belsat reports, citing sources.
The rave brought together musicians, artists, designers, and representatives of other creative professions. According to a source who spoke to the outlet, the event had no political context.
During the concert, security forces arrived with dogs and began detaining “everyone they could get their hands on.” OMON riot police ordered the music to stop. The concert resumed after the vehicles carrying the detainees had left.
Those detained included musicians, singer-songwriters, and several minors. Administrative charges were filed against all of them, although it is not known under which article.
