Belarusian protest leader Maria Kolesnikova has been detained while trying to enter Ukraine in the early hours of Tuesday morning, according to Belarusian border officials, a day after her allies said she had been grabbed off the street by masked men.
The opposition movement had said on Monday that unidentified men had taken Kolesnikova in central Minsk and driven her off in a minivan, while two other activists disappeared later.
The other two activists are reportedly in Ukraine, but some reports have said they were forcibly expelled from Belarus and only Kolesnikova's deliberate destruction of her passport prevented her expulsion.
