At the end of March, the “SIZO No. 1 Kalyadzichy” chat was declared “extremist material”. At that time, it had around 1,800 members.

In the chat, relatives of prisoners exchanged information and discussed parcel delivery rules, visiting schedules, correspondence and other issues related to detention facilities.

It should be recalled that extremism accusations are used in Belarus to fight opponents and dissent in general.
