Journalist for "Intex-press" from Baranovichi.
He was arrested on April 27, 2022. On April 29, he was sentenced to 10 days in jail.
About a week after the journalist's arrest, a video fragment from his interrogation appeared on pro-government Telegram channels, along with information about the reason for Gontarevich's arrest: he allegedly photographed Russian military equipment and sent the images to media outlets deemed extremist by the Belarusian authorities.
He was released at the end of summer 2024 .
