Belarusian Police Tortured and Threatened Protesters with Rape,
Officials Apologize for police Violence and Release All Protesters
More than 6,700 protesters were arrested in the anti-government demonstrations triggered by the Belarusian presidential election on August 9. The detention centers were overcrowded as a result. Many media sources showed that the detained protesters were physically abused by the police. Amnesty International pointed out that the protesters were tortured extensively. Deputy Interior Minister Alexander Barsukov said that all protesters would be released by 6 a.m. Friday morning (Aug 14). So far more than 2,000 protesters have been released.
Inhumane custodial conditions
Protesters beaten without getting treatments
Some released protesters posted photos on Nexta, which showed that they have suffered a lot of injuries, including large purple bruises and swelling on their backs or buttocks. They said the injuries were caused by the police. Amnesty International stated that some arrestees were stripped naked, beaten and threatened with rape.
Many journalists and pedestrians were arrested as well. One of the released Russian journalists, Nikita Telizhenko, disclosed her three-day detention life. She mentioned that many detainees were forced to sleep on the ground which had blood and faeces. They were not allowed to use the toilet or even change their lying positions for many hours. Ms. Telizhenko has already returned to Russia.

#NeverForget #2Years
Lest We Forget: The Tearful Day Outside the #LegCo Building
June 12, 2021 marks the two year-mark of the first large-scale police-civilian clash in the #AntiELAB movement in Hong Kong.
Two years ago, pro-democracy Hongkongers surrounded the Legislative Council building, with a hope to prevent the second reading of the amendment bill that proposed extradition to China.
Despite the peaceful rally, the police deployed #TearGas grenades and shot #RubberBullets at unarmed civilians, causing countless injuries in the crowd.
Whereas the police was condemned on an international level for their abuse of power and use of violence, the authorities in Hong Kong insisted in categorizing the pro-democracy rally in the Admiralty area as a "riot".
The government's reaction infuriated many citizens, causing over 2 million people to take part in Hong Kong's largest protest in history on June 16, 2019.
