In February-March, there has been an eruption of protesting the so-called tax on idlers in Belarus. Hundreds of Belarusians have been detained, fined, jailed after recent non-parasite marches. Most of them were accused of violating the order of holding mass events and disobedience to police officers’ demands. It should be noted that plainclothes policemen who refuse to show their IDs a or introduce themselves often beat people and prevented journalists from performing their professional duties.
