Nasta Loiko is a well-known Belarusian human rights activist. Nasta has been persecuted for her human rights activities; since August 2021, she has been a suspect in a criminal case related to the activities of the human rights organization Viasna.

On September 6, 2022, after attending a court hearing in the "Revolutionary Action" case, Nasta was convicted twice of "petty hooliganism" and spent 30 days in prison. Three weeks after her release, on October 28, 2022, Nasta was detained again. At the trial, Nasta reported torture (GUBOPiK officers hit her with a stun gun and, like the Central Inspectorate of the Criminal Code, left her in the cold for 8 hours without outerwear, which is why she fell ill). In custody at Okrestina, Nasta was without warm clothes and personal hygiene products.

On 28.11.2022 it became known that Nastya was sentenced again to 15 days under Article 19.1 "petty hooliganism". The fifth time this fall.

In mid-December, she was detained for the 6th time under the same article, and at the end of the month, she was charged under criminal articles and transferred to pretrial detention center No. 1. According to the prosecution, one of her human rights reports on the persecution of the anarchist community in Belarus in 2018 contains a negative assessment of the illegal actions of police officers, which became the basis for initiating a criminal case against her. The group against which other social hatred was allegedly incited is a professional social group of law enforcement officers. As human rights activists note, such an interpretation of the article does not comply with international human rights standards, as evidenced by the practice of international judicial bodies.
