In Hrodna, the apartment of blogger Vadim Yermashuk (Vadimati) has been seized. Former political prisoner Vadim Yermashuk learned about this from a notice sent by the city’s cadastral agency. The letter states that the property was seized based on a ruling by the Investigative Committee’s office for the Hrodna region dated January 9. The reason for the seizure is not specified in the document. It is presumed that the basis for the seizure and the criminal case was Vadim's interview with media outlets designated as extremist organizations.
