Moscow wants information on Russians detained in Minsk

The Russian Embassy in Belarus has asked the Republic's Prosecutor's Office to provide information on reasons for the arrest of two Russian citizens, Artyom Breus and Ivan Gaponov, who have been kept in a pre-trial detention center for a month and have not been charged with any wrongdoing yet.

Both Russians were detained during opposition riots that took place in Minsk on 19 December after Alexander Lukashenko was re-elected as the leader of Belarus.
