Head of dormitory No. 4 of BSEU. Detained for participating in the 2020 protests. A “repentance video” appeared on pro-government Telegram channels, in which Elena says that she once went to a rally, where she took part in a mass event.

At the end of the video, the channel’s authors attached a video of Elena singing along with the previously detained teachers.
Trial outcome 30.10.2023

The man was accused of participating in a protest in 2020 and entering the roadway. He admitted partial guilt. As reported in the court ruling, Mikhail did not deny participation in the action and admitted that he could have blocked the road with his actions. But he said that he had not previously planned to participate in the march. Initially, he came to the site of the protest for a personal meeting, after which he joined the rally. The Minsk resident was released pending trial on bail of 7,400 rubles.
Mikhail was identified from 11 photographs from the protest, which he sent to Viber. In them, a man is on the roadway wearing brown trousers and a white and gray shirt. And in his hands he holds a white-red-white flag.
Mikhail Antonov has a higher education, is liable for military service, and has a dependent minor child.
Trial outcome 24.10.2023:
