All persecuted

On May 3, 2024, the State Security Committee of Belarus added a number of media resources of the FreeInfoBel project to the list of so-called “extremist formations”, and specific people who, in their opinion, are related to the project were also indicated - Olga Pashkevich and Iosif Dulebo. Moreover, the introduction of FreeInfoBel in fact became known only 5 days later - on May 8.

At the moment, it is unknown for what specific criminal case the man is in custody, but it can be assumed that it is related to “extremism.” We managed to find out that Dulebo was initially detained on an administrative matter. However, when the time came for release from the temporary detention center, Dulebo was not released - he was transferred to a pre-trial detention center.

The man formerly headed the Vitebsk branch of the Belarusian Popular Front, but in the early 2000s he retired from party affairs.

According to social networks, the man is 38 years old. It is known that he lived in Russia for some time, but recently in Minsk. The man has a wife and a child.

Kozelsky worked as an operator at ONT for a long time. For example, back in November 2022, he taught the Interior Ministry Security Department how to work with state media. Kozelsky's last report was released in October 2023.

It is not known exactly when the operator was detained, but it happened more than six months ago.

The issue may be in the Telegram comments he left. Anton used to comment a lot in various political groups, but he deleted the comments themselves. They can only be found indirectly, through other users' responses and the man's traces in the groups.

On August 13, 2024, the appeal was heard and the verdict came into force.

Details of the verdict became known from prosecutor Pleskatsevich’s comment to Pinsk state TV (the name of the accused is not named, but he is the only one who was tried in Pinsk in 2024 under the article “unrest”). The prosecutor recounted the position of the accused: on August 9, 2020, he voted at the polling station, returned home and drank a lot (about a bottle of vodka), after which “out of interest he went to look at the protesters near the city executive committee building.” What exactly the man did next at the protests, for what reasons, he did not remember due to alcohol (in his words). But the video captured what the prosecution qualified as follows: “he took an active part [in the riots], namely, with his actions he supported the pogrom and attacked the police with other protesters.”

The first time she was detained by the KGB at the end of January 2024 (during the mass detentions of relatives and friends of political prisoners) for writing letters and transferring money to the accounts of political prisoners in the pre-trial detention center of prison No. 1. Then a criminal case was opened against her under Art. 361-2 (financing extremist activities), but the woman was not taken into custody.

During the search, equipment and money were confiscated from her. After examining the technique, unwanted comments were allegedly discovered on social networks, and an examination was then carried out on them. After receiving the results of the examination, on April 20, 2024, Victoria was re-detained and placed in a temporary detention facility, and subsequently in a pre-trial detention center.

He is involved in a case of treason together with the Prokhorov family from Grabovka.

It is also known that Maxim Sobolev, Gleb Klimovich, Yulia Sharanova were convicted, including on “narcotic” charges.

Maxim Sobolev under Part 1 of Art. 342 of the Criminal Code was sentenced to two years of imprisonment. But since Maxim was already convicted under the “narcotic” part 4 of Art. 328 of the Criminal Code, by partial addition of the main punishments and the full addition of an additional punishment, 12 years in prison were sentenced to serve in a correctional colony under a high security regime with a fine of 3,200 rubles.
