Vladislav Kovalev, born in Vitsebsk, accused of involvement in the explosion in Minsk subway on April 11, 2011, declared his innocence. "Mom, don’t believe what they say about me. Mom, I'm not going to give up, I'll stand firm to the end," he said in his letters to his mother Liudmila.
"He went to Minsk to attend the courses, willing to open an Internet cafe. He was employed by Minsk Power Company. He was so glad to have found work in Minsk. He hasn’t been in touch with Dmitri for more than a year. They talked on the phone just a couple of times," the woman said, reports "Belarusian Partisan."
According to Liudmila Kovaleva, she was forbidden to tell the details of the criminal case as well as to meet with her son under some pretexts, though she had not seen him since arrest. The woman reported that searches had been held several times in their apartment in Vitsebsk. Her husband’s "can of nails and wire" was seized first, then personal belongings of her son without a report drawn up. "Now they can write anything you want in this report," she said.
Mother of the accused in the attack said that she had given an interview to one of the major newspapers, the publication of which had been canceled in the last minute. At the same time she was glad to receive letters from her son from jail. "The first few letters made it clear that he was under pressure there, he seemed to have written them in prostration, but now after the completion of the investigation, the pressure has, apparently, eased and he can write quietly," said the woman.
Liudmila Kovaleva said that "nobody believes of him being involved in the explosion." "Slava has always been a quiet guy, neither into politics, nor in crime. No one believes in his guilt, but, I’m afraid, they won’t just let him go any longer," she said, noting that their family had become the victim of a hoax.
No Need to Predict Terms of Investigation, Supreme Court Head
Supreme Court Head Valentin Sukalo refused to announce the terms of the trial in the case of Minsk subway explosion. "I can only say that those reporters, trying to predict the timing or progress of these processes, are deeply mistaken," he said, reports "Sovetskaya Belorussia."
"The crime is unique to our judicial system both by the severity of the offense and the volume of the case. 550 volumes! Now Supreme Court judges are studying these materials, and it will take just as much time as required by law. Today I can only add that one of the leaders of the Supreme Court of the country will chair this process," said Valentin Sukalo.
