Persecuted for political reasonsProbation

Yulia Georgievna Kuksa

Yulia was found guilty in August 2021 for a comment left in the "Partizany" Telegram chat under a message containing the personal information of Alina Kasyanchik, assistant prosecutor of the Frunzensky District, and information about her trial for the caption "We will not forget! We will not forgive!" According to investigators, the comment was posted with the intent to publicly insult a government official and create a derogatory image in the public eye.

In 2022, Yulia faced another court hearing for "organizing and preparing actions that grossly violate public order, or actively participating in them." She was presumably found guilty under this charge for participating in the post-election protests that took place in Minsk in 2020, as Yulia stated at her previous trial that she attended all the marches and remains a supporter of Viktar Babaryka. The outcome of the hearing is unknown.
