Police in Belarus confined more than 50 individuals the nation over as fights requesting the renunciation of the nation’s tyrant head entered their third week, authorities said on Wednesday.
The recharged crackdown on dissidents, who have been rampaging for over about fourteen days, comes as specialists wrench up the weight on the restriction, imprisoning a few activists, calling others for addressing and specifically requesting many demonstrators to show up in court.

The confinements come without the emotional brutality seen fourteen days back, as Lukashenko moves to subdue the agitation step by step, with obscure guarantees of changes blended in with dangers, court summonses and particular captures.
Eyewitnesses state the moves by Lukashenko to get some time probably will see him clutching power for the present, even though he in all likelihood will confront more difficulties amid an exacerbating economy and stewing open annoyance.
