The pro-government channel shows the arrest of a man - on the street, three security officers run up to him from behind and lay him face down on the asphalt. In the video, Yakovenko says that on August 10, 2020, he was on Masherov Avenue in Brest. I was there with my acquaintance Igor Sorokin (he was detained in February after returning from Poland)
In a “repentance video” on a pro-government channel , a man says that he was previously arrested for 10 days under the article on distributing “extremist materials” (Part 2 of Article 19.11 of the Administrative Code). This time he was detained for standing on the roadway with his friends in 2020 and “launching fireworks at employees.”
Detained in a criminal case of mass riots 08/10/2020
On September 15, 2023, 57-year-old Gennady Vasilyuk was fined for "distributing extremist materials." Subscriptions to "extremist" materials were found on Gennady's Odnoklassniki page. In addition, Vasilyuk was fired from the locomotive depot "by mutual agreement."
On December 7, 2023, Gennady was detained as part of a criminal case for "slandering Lukashenko" (Part 1 of Article 367 of the Criminal Code) and placed in custody in a pretrial detention center. The case was heard on February 22 and 26, 2024.
The man was accused of posting the "like" reaction on the Odnoklassniki social network on June 8, 9, and 17, 2022, under three videos featuring economist Yaroslav Romanchuk.
Gennady admitted his guilt and reported that on the specified days in June he went to a village in the Zhabinka district, which is confirmed by an extract from a mobile operator. The man uses a push-button phone, so he could not log into Odnoklassniki in the village.
Prosecutor Yegor Kronda considered Gennady's guilt to be fully proven and requested one year and six months of imprisonment for him.
Gennady was convicted for the second time on September 16, 2024, for participating in protests. His wife and three other people were convicted along with him. According to the court, the essence of the charge against everyone was that on August 10, 2020, people in Brest "shouted slogans, whistled, clapped their hands, demonstrated white-red-white banners, and went out onto the roadway." In doing so, they allegedly grossly violated public order.
The court sentenced Gennady to one and a half years in prison, but taking into account the unserved previous (political) term, the final sentence was only 2 years in a general regime prison.
Stanislav was detained upon returning to Belarus from Poland, where he had moved more than a year earlier. He came home in late 2023 to spend the holidays with his family, but was arrested in connection with a criminal case opened after protests on August 10, 2020, in Brest against the falsification of the presidential election. Stanislav was convicted of participating in “mass riots.”
In a pro-government confessional video published, he says that he "participated in protests and went out onto the roadway." The recording shows that Stanislav's face is scratched, although no such damage was visible when he was detained.
