Arciom Prakapenka, who is serving the imprisonment term in the penal colony number 15 in Mahilou, has been allowed to have a sort-term meeting with parents.

The charter97.org web-site learnt about that from his father Anatol Prakapenka.

“We will have a short meeting on the eighth, on Friday, and we will, probably, find out something new. So far everything is the same: Arciom keeps working and holds on. His health is in order”, - said the father of the political prisoner.

We would remind that in September political prisoner Arciom Prakapenka was deprived of a long-term meeting, and in March this year he spent five days in a penal cell for alleged violation of the regime, where he refused to take food. Pressure was put on the political prisoner so he signed a plea for pardon, but he refused.

Arciom Prakapenka was convicted together with Jauhien Vaskovich and Paviel Syramalotau for 7 years of imprisonment for alleged attempted arson of the doors of the Babrujsk KGB headquaters.
