It is known that two women were detained along with Yevgeny Krasnyansky: Minsk residents aged 37 and 43. They allegedly conducted a sociological study on the presence of advantages among citizens in the development of the country through integration with the countries of the European Union.

She was accused of assisting “extremist groups,” administering Telegram channels, inciting hatred, insulting the authorities, disseminating personal data, and slandering Lukashenko, and was convicted under eight criminal articles.

In March 2024, the court heard the appeal and reduced her sentence by one year, without the right to further appeal.

In May 2024, it became known that she was convicted again for “insulting a government official and a judge.”

In May 2021, Elena was convicted of "participating in group actions that grossly violate public order" in a criminal case opened after a protest on September 13, 2020 in Brest, where participants sang songs and danced in circles, and a water cannon was used against them.
