Yuliana Malachkova from Babruysk is 22 years old. The girl recently graduated from Minsk College of Entrepreneurship.

The girl was tried in the Mahiliou Regional Court under Part 1 of Article 361-4 of the Criminal Code. She was accused of "facilitating extremist activity".

It is known that the court sentenced Malachkova to "home chemistry" (restricted freedom).

Mass political repressions in the country began after 2020. At that time, Aliaksandr Lukashenka lost to Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya but did not cede power to her, forcing her to leave the country. Mass popular protests against the dictatorship and election fraud took place. The authorities responded with repressions.

According to calculations by the law enforcement association "Belpol" and human rights activists, the names of at least 10,050 people who fell victim to politically motivated criminal cases are known. In total, these or other political repressions (criminal cases, administrative charges, dismissals, searches, forced emigration) affected hundreds of thousands of Belarusians.

The Belarusian authorities consider "extremism" to be the demand for free elections with transparent vote counting, as well as virtually any criticism of the authorities, pro-Russian historical narratives, expressions of solidarity with Ukraine, and anti-war speeches.

Many recent criminal cases under the article on "facilitating extremism" were related to the "Hayun case".

"Belaruski Hayun" is an OSINT monitoring project that was created in 2022 when Russia attacked Ukraine through Belarus. The project tracked the military activity of Russian and Belarusian troops, relying on information from Belarusians. Its activities were coordinated by a group of activists led by Anton Matolka.

The "Hayun case" began after security forces detained an activist who had been living underground in Belarus for several years. A link to join the Hayun bot, which she had been sent at the very beginning of the project's existence, was found on her mobile phone. The fatal mistake was that the link was permanent. And so, the security forces were able to connect to the bot and download all information from it. They received messages from accounts that wrote to the bot, as well as their IDs and usernames.

    Удакладненне, называць тых, хто забяспечваў "паглыбленную інтэграцыю" рэвалюцыйным рухам - найвышэйшая ступень цынізма. Ад Масквы смярдзіць у біяграфіі кожнага з гэтых "рэвалюцыянераў". І аніхто з іх і не думаў, што прыйдзецца ахвяраваць сваім жыццём і здароўем. І да беларусаў яны ставяцца гэтак жа, як і Лука. У іх усіх народ - вінаваты.
    А выбараў у Беларусі няма з 1995 года. І тое, што хлусілі, што будуць выбары ў 2020, то гэта і ёсць здрада беларускаму народу. І, натуральна што Захад не прызнаў тыя "выбары". А якія лукашэнкаўскія "выбары" з 2001 года прызнаваў Захад? Ніякія.
    Беларусы ў 2020 хацелі не бабарык, калеснікавых, ціханоўскіх і іншых цапкалаў, а каб не было Лукі. Так і цяпер тое ж самае. Толькі з масавымі рэпрэсіямі супраць нас, беларусаў.
    І розніца між "інтарасантамі найменавання жанчыны Нацыянальнай лідаркай і Прэзідэнтам-электам" і "мужам, які ... уступіў у жорсткі клінч" вельмі праблематычныя. А часам і анекдатычныя. Па прымаўцы - "муж ды жана - адна сатана".
    І дай Бог, каб яшчэ не пад "прыкрыццём" ўсю гэту "рэвалюцыйную" групу на Захад не адправілі (тут ужо не пра Ціханоўскіх, а шырэй).

    Что-что, а воевать с безоружными, молодыми, красивыми беларусками, государственники из кгб и их холуи из губопика, могут до бесконечности.
    Отрабатывают лукашенковы квартиры, льготы, пенсии, должности, премии, которые выделяются за террор беларусок и беларусов.
