Save Belarus Men Accused Of Terrorism!
Stand up for a fair judicial system in Belarus.»
This week, Kavalyou said that he was led by law enforcement to accuse Kanavalau of minor crimes in order to make Kanavalau's alleged metro attacks more plausible. Kavalyou also claims to have heard "screaming" during his compatriot's interrogation. During his own interrogation, which was allegedly not recorded, he says he was taught what to say. "If I am in this cage," he testified this week, "it does not mean that I am a criminal."
