According to Belsat.eu, Belarus has handed down sentences against an IT worker and a language school instructor on charges related to extremist activity. The case is part of a series of criminal prosecutions conducted by Belarusian authorities in recent years.
The source emphasizes that these cases are viewed by critics as part of the regime's repressive policy toward civil society and freedom of expression.
Belarus has sentenced an IT specialist and language school teacher on charges of extremism. The school was designated by authorities as an 'extremist organization', which made it possible to criminalize the activities of its employees.
If you work in IT or education in Belarus, the risk of criminal prosecution has increased — the regime is actively persecuting representatives of these sectors under the pretext of extremism. The process of classifying organizations as 'extremist' has become a tool for eliminating independent structures and suppressing freedom of speech.
