It has been reported by one of the cadets of the Academy of the Interior Affairs Ministry.

He told that the administration promised to carry out a check. Those who would fail to fulfill instructions of the academy administration, are to be expelled. As said by him, inspections are to start next week.

The cadet told that almost all his fellow students have Facebook, “Vkontakte!” and Odnoklassniki.ru accounts, and have got used to exchange information, music files, and find new friends in the virtual world. They are discussing the order of the administration and are looking for the ways to stay on the net.

We remind that on July 3 during the “silent” protest rally on Pryvakzalnaya Square in Minsk an unknown sprayed tear gas. Belarusian internauts have made an attempt to identify the criminal, and the suspect turned out to be a graduate of the Academy of the Interior Affairs Ministry Raman Kibryk (Roman Kibrik in Russian spelling).

In a few days the IAM Academy made an official statement concerning the policeman in mufti who used tear gas during the silent protest rally.

“Recently information has been actively spread on the web that on July 3, 2011 in the evening a graduate of the Academy of the Interior Affairs Ministry Raman Kibryk used a tear gas on Pryvakzalnaya Square in Minsk,” the statement published on the official website of the Academy reads.

The Academy of the Interior Affairs Ministry has officially stated that the person depicted on the photograph disseminated on the web, is not Raman Kibryk.

And now, obviously to exclude further identifications of force structures representatives in mufti, who are employing lawless methods, it had been decided to ban the use of social networks for police cadets.
