According to the charges , Vadim Krivosheyev joined the "extremist groups" "Belarusian Sports Solidarity Fund" and "People's Anti-Crisis Management" in 2020-2021. The prosecutor's office alleges that he "called, along with others, for actions to harm the national security of Belarus." For example, he advocated the use of sanctions to pressure government bodies, administrations, and officials to review the election results. After this, the prosecutor's office writes , he "assisted the conspirators and individuals who joined them, as well as the extremist groups they created, in an attempt to seize state power through unconstitutional means."
