The Belarusian Social Democratic Party (People's Assembly) (Belarusian: Беларуская сацыял-дэмакратычная партыя (Народная Грамада), romanized: Bielaruskaja Sacyjal-Demakratyčnaja Partyja (Narodnaja Hramada); Russian: Белорусская социал-демократическая партия (Народная Грамада), romanized: Belorusskaya sotsial-demokraticheskaya partiya (Narodnaya Gramada)) is an unregistered social-democratic[3] political party in Belarus that opposes the administration of President Alexander Lukashenko.
In legislative elections held between October 13–17, 2004, the party did not secure any seats.
On May 31, 2020, the party's leader Mikola Statkevich was arrested on his way to a rally where signatures for Svetlana Tikhanovskaya were being gathered.
[7] Viasna Human Rights Centre called the accusations politically motivated and demanded the immediate release of Statkevich.
Throughout the 565 days he has spent in detention, Statkevich was not allowed to get access to legal representation or defence and he has been denied all contact with his family.
