Artem is from Rogachev and studied at Gomel State Technical University. A few years ago the guy moved to Minsk and recently worked as a waiter.
In a “repentance” video published in mid-March, Artem said that he was detained “for moderating the 97% Serebryanka chat.” But the channel was recognized as an “extremist formation” only on May 30, 2023.
He began to be tried in the Minsk City Court on August 29, 2023 under Part 1 of Art. 361-1 of the Criminal Code (Creation of an extremist formation).
