June 1, BPN. Justice officials in Belarus are planning to call Viktar Babaryka, a former presidential hopeful, to testify as a witness at the trial of his son, according to Minskaya Pravda.
Since the end of April, Viktar Babaryka’s team does not know his whereabouts. A worker rights group reported his hospitalization with signs of beating and a collapsed lung on April 26.
The son, Eduard Babaryka, pleaded not guilty to all charges at the trial that human right defenders denounced as politically motivated.
He may face up to 20 years in prison on charges of inciting hatred and organizing riots.
