The Belarusian authorities released several associates of former presidential nominee Viktar Babaryka, including two political prisoners Sviatlana Kupreyeva and Dzmitry Karaka, according to zerkalo.io.
A close friend of the Babaryka family, Sviatlana Kupreyeva, was held in the KGB pre-trial prison. During the 2020 presidential election, she worked as coordinator of Viktar Babaryka’s nomination group in Minsk.
Babaryka’s former personal assistant Dzmitry Karaka was held in pre-trial detention center No. 1 in Minsk.
Both are accused of “large-scale tax evasion”. The charges against Kupreyeva and Karaka remain in place and they will be under travel restrictions before trial.
