Supporters of Kyrgyzstan’s former president, Almazbek Atambaev, held a rally outside a courthouse in the Kyrgyz capital, Bishkek, demanding that he be released from custody. Opponents of the 63-year-old former leader also gathered outside the court on June 1 to insist that Atambaev must go to prison. The former president and 13 codefendants face a range of charges, the most serious of which is the murder of a commander of an elite security unit that stormed Atambaev’s compound in August 2019.
Thousands of people have been gathering in Belarus to sign documents in support of opposition candidates for president.

The authorities have reacted by arresting hundreds of activists and two prominent opposition leaders~RFE/RL
