Details of the case became known from the published verdict . It states that Ivan Vatslavovich was kept in custody for three days from July 10, 2023, and then transferred to house arrest. He was released from house arrest only after the verdict was announced on August 22.
The complaint against the pensioner was that he liked one publication on the Odnoklassniki social network. In that publication, the prosecution discovered allegedly unfair data that A. Lukashenko was involved in three types of crimes (“act of terrorism”, “murder”, “abuse of power or official authority”).
