A catechism teacher at the Minsk Archcathedral, Bilodid participated in communal prayers for an end to violence and lawlessness in 2020. He was arrested on May 31, 2023, and subjected to inhumane and degrading treatment. His family noted signs of beatings at his trial.

The believer was forced to record a so-called "repentance" video, in which he appeared dejected and, under obvious duress, declared his homosexual orientation, which put him at further risk. The propaganda video contained derogatory language about him, forced him to incriminate himself, and displayed photos and videos aimed at discrediting him in the eyes of believers. The Curia of the Minsk-Mogilev Archdiocese published a statement stating that a canonical investigation had been launched into the facts presented in the propaganda video.

Vladislav was arrested several times for a total of 45 days under the article on dissemination of “extremist materials” (Article 19.11 of the Code of Administrative Offenses), after which a criminal case was opened under Article 130 of the Criminal Code of the Republic of Belarus.

On June 11, 2024, the appeal was heard and the verdict came into force.
