Ales Kalita has told to Radio Svaboda that he had been prohibited to be preset at the session of the commission.

The chairman of the commission Anatol Hlas demanded Ales to leave his mobile phone in the corridor, and to the question why called Ales “a percy boy” and told him leave the room. The decision of the commission was received by Ales after the sitting finished. He was found combat-fit with insignificant limitations.

Ales Kalita has health problems with which young people are relieve from military service. Earlier Mahilyou district draft commission found him unfit for service because of a heart problem (16 mm cardiac wall’s outpouching). However the regional commission sent him for additional check-up to the Central Military Medical commission in Minsk.

After a check-up there the stage of the heart problem was found much less serious. Ales Kalita plans to appeal against the decision of the regional draft commission and the diagnosis of the Central Military Medical Commission at the prosecutor’s offices and courts.
