Natalia Davydulina is 47 years old and lives in Zhlobin. It's known from her social media that she and her husband have a large family—five children, one of whom is still in elementary school.
One of Natalia's sons, Denis Davydulin, is a former political prisoner. He was arrested in March 2021 and sentenced to eighteen months in prison for "walking onto the roadway and actively disobeying police officers" on the night of August 10th.
She has never given media interviews. Court records indicate she was tried on January 24, 2024, for "disseminating extremist materials." She was likely detained during a roundup of supporters of political prisoners.
The trial will begin on August 23 in the Gomel Regional Court. Therefore, Natalia is most likely accused of assisting other prisoners in some way. It is known that during the January raid, those who remained behind bars were primarily those who helped others—sending money transfers and parcels to pretrial detention centers and penal colonies, even for very small amounts.
On March 19, 2026, she was pardoned after another visit to Minsk by US President Donald Trump's special representative, John Cole (among a group of 235 prisoners left in Belarus).
In April of this year, it became known about the detention of three men in Zhlobin in 2020. Among them is an employee of the BMZ, who in the video of the security forces called on everyone who participated in the protests to voluntarily come and surrender to the authorities. As I found out “daily”, this person turned out to be Zhlobin resident Evgeniy Sizov. It became possible to find out that he is an employee of BMZ from a message on social networks where Evgeniy’s colleagues congratulate him on his birthday. At the time of 2018, he worked as a wire drawer at StPTs-2.

The court hearing took place at the Zhlobin Metallurgical College, where Konstantin studied.
As reported by the Department of Internal Affairs of the Gomel Regional Executive Committee, the young man climbed onto the roof of the Euroopt hypermarket, from where he took a red-green flag and put it in his jacket pocket. Then Konstantin threw the flag in the trash.
A year ago, on the stage of the assembly hall of the same college, Konstantin, along with three other students, was solemnly congratulated and awarded letters of gratitude - the young men saved a pensioner from the water.
