Additional information:

In the evening, police officers came to Siarhei Niarovny’s home and showed him the warrant of the district prosecutor to conduct a home inspection. As a result of the two-hour search, they seized a computer «for examination». According to the law enforcers, the reason was a photograph of a picket near the district administration building posted on one of the Telegram channels. It allegedly shows a man who resembles Niarovny.
