a russian prisoner is in urgent need of support in minsk, russia


In the beginning of April, our friend Jenia, activist, antiglobalist,
vegetarian and antifascist, was arrested an put in Minsk temporary holding
jail on Volodarskaya str. He was detained for vegetarian oriented tag and
for throwing a brick into McDonald's window. Now he is threatened with few
years of jail and a fine of about 1400$

In the beginning of June he is up in court. Now all we can do is send some
food and cigarettes, twice a month, up to 30 kg. Even his mom does not
know a thing about how he is going. Looks like some one up all this has
decided he is really dangerous and the case is extremist, the judgement
was put off and he is put in jail. We hope he will get off by the fine or
by correction works. No one wants him to spend few years with rapists and
killers. We wish the best, but the judgement, if not put off again, will
decide on it.

We can also write him letters and support him, collect money for the fine,
anyway he'll have to pay a lot. Don't stay indifferent, he needs our
support now. Unfortunately he does not speak English well, so we'd better
write him in Russian, but he'll be glad to receive any letter from anyone,
and feel our support and participation. Note, that cops read all the
letters, so please try not to allow yourself some extras about Anarchy
etc. Jenia, we'll support you up to the end of all this!

Write letters here:
Belarus, Minsk 220050 Volodarskogo str.2, room 35, for Shimanskiy Evgeniy
Dmitrievich. If you want to send some monew for him, please, contact
 punk77@mail.ru and mark "money for Shiman"
