This is a trial of an innocent man.

This was stated by the film director and European Belarus activist to Charter97.org in the court building, where political prisoner Dzmitry Paliyenka cut his veins in protest against the closed trial in his case:

- What can be in the trials of political prisoners and activists fighting for independence and freedom of Belarus? What else can happen when there's a trial of an innocent man? He took such a step because of despair and hopelessness. We see a situation identical to the Soviet times, when the fighters for Belarus and our dissidents were tried. This is just another NKVD. Yes, today we are killed not in Kurapaty, but in other ways. But we came to court today to support Dzmitry, we were shouting "Shame!" to these judges and servants of the regime. This is our position.
