Afghan war veteran: I have faith in Sannikov

Aalyaksandr Kamarouski, an Afghan war veteran from Zhodzina, is sure that the so-called “petition for clemency” by Andrei Sannikov was a result of torture and threats.

He told “Belarusian Partizan” about that.

- I think they got this petition in a very simple way: they gave him something to drink, his brain was switched off, and he could sign anything at all. Such a thing happened to me in Kyiv on September 20, 2010 when I drank three gulps of coffee from the hand of a secretary, and I passed out for 12 hours, my brain was switched off, and I do not remember anything up to now. I remembered 300 phone numbers of my colleagues by heart, and at that moment I could not recall the name of my daughter. These are the elementary dirty tricks of Lukashism. And we should not rack brains about that. Andrei Sannikov is a man of honour, and a reliable political fighter, I have absolute faith in him.

But on the other hand, let us recall Stalin’s NKVD, the forefather of the Belarusian KGB, when people undersigned any document after tortures. They subscribed their names to documents that they were enemies of the people and planned to kill the great leader. Those unfortunate people had only one aim – they wanted to be shot as soon as possible, for tortures and torments to be ended. In any case, glory to heroes, I trust in Sannikov.
