Police officers didn’t let Volga Kazulina go for about 4 hours, after that they apologized for alleged “misunderstanding” and released her without a report drawn up.

But, as it has become known today, officer of road police fined of BYR 35.000 for the passengers were allegedly unbelted. They are going to fined her of bigger sum – up to 4 basic units (about BYR 140.000) for “wrong using of motorhorn” on Kastrychnitskaya Square. V. Kazulina was deprived of her driver’s license.

Today Volga Kazulina has written a claim of dissent with the activities of road police, which will be considered by administrative commission.

Police tired to raise a claim concerning portraits of Alyaksandr Kazulin on the car windows, but this question was solved, as the portraits weren’t glued to the windows, and it does not contravene with traffic rules.
