Detained along with his son for donations. According to officials, the man was convicted of making more than 100 money transfers totaling $1,885. Transfers were made from August 7, 2020 to March 24, 2021.

This was considered “financing the activities of an extremist formation” (although, most likely, at that time the initiatives were not any “extremist formations”).

On 02/02/2024 the appeal hearing was held, the verdict came into force.

Sentences

Trial outcome 20.11.2023

5 years of imprisonment in a general regime colony.

Once the sentence takes effect, you can only write letters to the prisoner. Under Art. 85 of the Penal Code of Belarus, convicts cannot receive money transfers from anyone other than close relatives. Parcels are also only possible from relatives. If you want to help, support the family directly if this option is available on the prisoner's page.
