Arthur was detained on December 15 last year and a protocol of administrative offense was drawn up for “production, distribution and (or) preservation of extremist materials” (Article 19.11 of the Administrative Code). Later, a “repentance video” appeared, where the man says that he allegedly registered in a chat bot plan "Victory" and participated in protests. He was also forced to say that he was subscribed to "destructive channels" and sent information to Nexta chatbots, "Golos", "Belarus brain".
According to the prosecution , Artur Filippov repeatedly “took an active part in group actions that grossly violated public order and involved clear disobedience to the legal demands of government officials and police officers, namely, he moved along the roadways and sidewalks, including as part of a convoy, blocked and obstructed the path of vehicles." The case includes episodes of his participation in protests on August 23 and 30, September 13 and 20, 2020.
At the court hearing, Filippov partially admitted guilt in the charge and explained that on August 23, 2020, while participating in an unauthorized mass event, he did not go out onto the roadway. He refused to testify.
Trial outcome 27.02.2024:
3 years of restriction of freedom without direction.
According to the prosecution , Mikhail Leshukovich, who was in custody before the verdict, on one of the YouTube channels, under the video “Protests in Belarus: is this possible in Tajikistan?” publicly posted a comment humiliating the honor and dignity of Alexander Lukashenko, thus spreading slander against him in a form open to the public.
There are still more than a thousand comments under the video.
