Abstract

Since the start of the violent deployment of OMON units and the police on 9-13 August 2020 in order to quell the protests against the fraudulent presidential election in Belarus, the human rights centre Vyasna, together with the World Organisation Against Torture, has collected reports from victims of police violence and torture. We document eight cases.
