Stanislav Vladimirovich Ivanyutenko
Crimes against the rights and freedoms of citizens of Belarus. Stanislav Vladimirovich Ivanyutenko is an employee of the judicial authorities involved in politically motivated repressions, in which thousands of peaceful demonstrators, several hundred journalists, human rights defenders and activists were detained and subjected to violence. He handed down guilty verdicts in politically motivated cases, where he issued penalties in the form of fines totaling at least 1,755 rubles and administrative arrest for at least 6 days. He sentenced political prisoner Victoria Kulsha under Part 1 of Article 411 of the Criminal Code (Malicious disobedience to the legal requirements of the colony administration) and sentenced the woman to another year of imprisonment in addition to three and a half years in prison. Among her “violations” were: “destroying a letter written for her daughter”, “went to the toilet without warning”, “was unfriendly with the correctional facility staff”, “was with a button on her coat undone”, “when opening the cell doors, did not she stood up, didn’t say hello, didn’t identify herself.” A total of 34 penalties were issued against Victoria. He handed down a sentence to Anna Vasilyeva, a resident of the city of Rechitsa, who was accused of organizing and preparing actions that grossly violate public order under Part 1 of Article 342 of the Criminal Code, because the woman “took an active part in group actions, grossly violating public order, going out onto the road in Rechitsa, joining other people and actively obstructing the movement of the official vehicle of the Department of Internal Affairs of the Rechitsa District Executive Committee, using a baby stroller, forcing him to stop the movement and subsequently change the route, when thereby showing clear disobedience to the lawful demands of police officers to stop the gross violation of public order.” Ivanyutenko sentenced the woman to restriction of freedom for a period of two years without sending her to an open correctional facility. Thus, Stanislav Vladimirovich Ivanyutenko is responsible for human rights violations and undermining the principles of the rule of law, as well as for promoting repression against representatives of civil society and the democratic opposition. His work within the judiciary is focused on maintaining the position of the existing government, rather than on enforcing the law. Ivanyutenko’s actions contribute to human rights violations, strengthening the power of Alexander Lukashenko and increasing politically motivated repression in the Republic of Belarus.

The social activist was detained on January 3, 2021, at her home after security forces broke down the door, conducted a search, and seized some of her belongings. Polina was convicted of "threatening to use violence against an internal affairs officer" and "insulting a government official." She refused to testify either during the investigation or in court.
In April 2022, Polina's sentence was extended on charges of "disobeying the demands of the prison administration," and in October 2023, she was convicted again under the same article. Polina is the first female political prisoner in Belarus to be convicted under this article. The article is used against prisoners who refuse to cooperate with the administration, often for alleged violations.
The political prisoner is systematically subjected to psychological pressure and physical violence; she has been repeatedly placed in solitary confinement, punishment cells and punishment cells.
The BNR Rada awarded Polina Sharendo-Panasyuk the Order of the Pursuit.
In March 2024, a propaganda story about Polina accidentally showed a yellow tag indicating the end date of her imprisonment: May 21. However, she was not released on that day, and she was charged for the third time with “disobeying the prison administration,” for which she was convicted again in October 2024.
She was released on February 1, 2025, having fully served her sentence (4 consecutive terms).

Victoria, the administrator of the "Drivers 97%" channel, was detained on November 4, 2020, in Minsk by GUBOPiK officers and convicted of "calling for mass riots and roadblocks due to dissatisfaction with the government and election fraud."
In 2022 and 2023, the court twice increased her sentence, accusing her of "malicious disobedience to the demands of the correctional facility administration." Victoria had repeatedly been subjected to pressure in the penal colony and was deemed a "malicious violator."
In October 2024, in the Rechitsa District Court, Victoria was convicted for the third time under the article "malicious disobedience to the lawful demands of the penal colony administration" and sentenced to another year of imprisonment.
In early 2025, Polina Sharendo-Panasyuk reported that Victoria and Elena Gnauk had been placed in a punishment cell: "After several weeks in solitary confinement, they were transferred to a punishment cell. There's a 99% chance they'll be charged again under Article 411."
Polina also added: "Viktoria Kulsha's kidneys have probably already failed. She went on hunger strikes for months, refusing water and drink. She slit her wrists. They threw her in solitary confinement for this—she slit her wrists in solitary confinement. She went on hunger strikes in the PKT. She refused medical attention."
Victoria was scheduled to be released in April 2025 upon completion of her sentence. However, at the beginning of the month, she was transferred to Gomel Pretrial Detention Center No. 3 as part of a fourth criminal case under the article "malicious disobedience of the legal demands of the prison administration." In June of that year, her sentence was extended by another year.
On December 13, 2025, she was released following a visit to Minsk by US President Donald Trump's special representative, John Cole, and taken to Ukraine.
