Andrey Yankovich is originally from Rechitsa. He graduated from the Sukhoi Gomel State Technical University in 2008. He lives in Gomel. Until recently, he worked at ISsoft, a company that develops digital engineering software.

There is a high probability that the persecution of Andrei Yankovich is connected with the case of the monitoring channel "Belarusian Gayun".

Sentences

Trial outcome date unknown
3 years of imprisonment in colony under enhanced security conditions.

Once the sentence takes effect, you can only write letters to the prisoner. Under Art. 85 of the Penal Code of Belarus, convicts cannot receive money transfers from anyone other than close relatives. Parcels are also only possible from relatives. If you want to help, support the family directly if this option is available on the prisoner's page.
