Beaten By Police In Belarus For Handing Out Flowers

The owner of a shop in Belarus who handed out flowers to protesters was beaten so severely that he was barely able to walk and left a police station in an ambulance. He said he suffered a head injury and a broken nose. Flowers have become a symbol of the peaceful protests against authoritarian President Alyaksandr Lukashenka, which have been brutally repressed by security forces.
