July 27, 2006 -- Anatol Lyabedzka, the leader of the Belarusian opposition United Civic party, was released from a detention center in Minsk late July 26 after serving a 10-day prison sentence.
Lyabedzka was arrested on July 16 on his way to the Russian Embassy to take part in a demonstration against Moscow's support for President Alyaksandr Lukashenka.
Lyabedzka served another 10-day jail sentence in March for taking part in a demonstration against Lukashenka's reelection.
