Police Released Details About Worker Protesting On Crane

The amount of the non-payment, that made finisher Dzmitry Staliarou climb on the tower crane in Minsk, has become known.

As the information and public relations department of Minsk city executive committee has reported today, Dzmitry Staliarou that the reason for his actions became the non-enforcement of the decision of the Pervamaiski district court of Vitsebsk on collecting 46 million rubles in his favor from a company.

The police also emphasize that the information that Staliarou was a Vitsebsk Riot Police officer, which appeared on some websites, is not true: he was a candidate for the service, but after probation he was not given the job in the police department.

We remind that yesterday afternoon finisher from Vitsebsk Dzmitry Staliarou climbed on a tower crane at the Dinamo stadium in Minsk, demanding the return of his multi-million debts on wages.

In total, the man spent at the top more than five hours. At 18.15 he started to go down. When the worker was down, people in a working form immediately took him by the arms and put him in a white van. The identity of these people is unknown.

Later Aliaksandr Lastouski, a spokesman for the Minsk police, reported that Dzmitry Staliarou had written an explanatory report at the police department of Leninski district of Minsk.
