Viktor Iosifovich Baliko is involved in politically motivated repressions in the Republic of Belarus.
Baliko, as a judge of the Polotsk district court and the city of Polotsk, makes politically motivated sentences against representatives of civil society.
In particular, in 2022, a judge sentenced a resident of Polotsk to four years of restriction of freedom without being sent to an open institution and a fine of 3,200 rubles for comments on the Internet.
Thus, Baliko’s actions contribute to human rights violations, strengthening the power of Alexander Lukashenko and increasing politically motivated repression in the Republic of Belarus.
