Detained together with parents on 09/27/2022. Identified from a photo from the book I'm Coming Out. The trial took place on December 27, 2022. On the same day the verdict was passed.
Trial outcome 27.12.2022:
2.5 years of restriction of liberty without a referral.
Dmitry lived in Ukraine for a long time, and in 2019 he married a Ukrainian woman there. He did not serve in the Belarusian army, but in Ukraine he joined the Ukrainian Armed Forces as a supply officer. From March to October 2021, he worked as a guard at a military warehouse in the demarcation zone between the DPR/LPR and the territory controlled by Ukraine.
In the fall of 2021, having lost his Belarusian passport, Dmitry went to the embassy in Kyiv, where he was issued a temporary document and advised to go to Belarus for a new passport. However, immediately after crossing the border, he was detained. For two days in a row, the KGB interrogated him on suspicion of "terrorism" and "weapons transportation."
No facts were found, but Dmitry was transferred from the temporary detention facility to a pretrial detention center and a case of "mercenarism" was opened (Article 133 of the Criminal Code of the Republic of Belarus). Later, the article was reclassified, and in March 2022, he was convicted of "participation in military actions on the territory of a foreign state without the authorization of Belarus." During his stay in the pretrial detention center, Dmitry's daughter was born.
According to human rights activists, he was released in the winter of 2024, having fully served his sentence.
