Vladimir Tolkach was detained for the first time on September 26, 2023 and sentenced to 10 days of administrative arrest. Then national symbols and a swastika were found on his phone, which he placed back in 2021.
In the spring, during a search, the pensioner’s computer was confiscated, where Vladimir’s poems were found. Experts came to the conclusion that some lines may contain an insult to Alexander Lukashenko.
During the court hearing, Tolkach became ill, an ambulance was called, which took him to the hospital. But the trial resumed a few hours later.
