According to the prosecution's version, in October 2021, Dmitry Ponteleyko posted an image of the national flag of the Republic of Belarus on the background of which a swastika was placed on two accounts of the vk.com social network using a laptop.
These actions were qualified as an outrage against State symbols.

BSUIR student. Detained for participating in protests. Probably convicted under an administrative article and released, after which she quickly left Belarus.
According to investigators, Oleg left graffiti on the walls. One inscription was on the facade of the house on GOBK Street in Brest, the second one was at a public transport stop. These inscriptions turned out to be “Stop Lukashenka” and “Stop Luka” .
According to the investigation , on the night of January 21-22, 2022, young people were resting and drinking. Once at the Brest store "Hit!" (on Moskovskaya street 342), we saw the state flag there. Khomichuk tried to pluck it, but it didn't work the first time. Then Murashkin lifted his comrade, and the flag was in his hands (at the same time, the pole was broken). The guys didn’t tear the flag itself, they didn’t do anything with it - they just brought it home to Khomichuk and set it upright. Then they went to friends.
