An activist from the European Belarus movement was detained on December 30, 2021, in connection with a criminal case alleging group actions that grossly violated public order.

On January 7, 2022, the woman was transferred to a pre-trial detention facility.

Elena has a little son.

In January 2023, Elena was transferred to Gomel Women's Colony No. 4. For a long time, a lawyer was unable to see the political prisoner; she was placed in solitary confinement.

In October 2023, it became known that Elena's package had not been accepted in August. This likely indicates that she had been deprived of her packages. The last letter from Elena arrived in early September, and no letters have been received since. Since Lazarchik's transfer to the penal colony, the prison administration has not granted permission to meet with a lawyer. Elena's current situation and her current condition are unknown. Elena is experiencing dental problems in the colony and has lost weight.

In mid-November 2023, human rights activists learned that Elena had been placed in solitary confinement again.

According to the testimony of the former political prisoner, Elena served more than 90 days in a punishment cell and more than 60 days in a PKT .

In the spring of 2025, Elena was convicted under Part 2 of Article 411 of the Criminal Code (malicious disobedience to the lawful demands of the prison administration) and sentenced to an additional eighteen months in prison in addition to her eight years in prison. The date of the sentence is unknown. It is known that Elena refused legal representation at her trial.

On September 16, 2026, she was released after a visit to Minsk by US President Donald Trump's special representative, John Cole, and taken to Lithuania.

Trial outcome 19.09.2022
8 years of imprisonment in colony under general regime conditions.
