Beatings, arrests, court cases, internet blocks and revocation of press credentials being an accredited journalist is no longer a guarantee of protection for independent media in Belarus.
Four members of Press Club Belarus, a network that focuses on journalism, have been in pre-trial detention since December 22, when club founder Yulia Slutskaya, program director Ala Sharko, financial director Sergei Olszewski and operator Pyatro Slutski, Yulia’s son, were arrested on accusations of large-scale tax fraud.
Two others linked to the club are also in custody: Ksenia Lutskina and Siarhei Yakupau.
Lutskina is one of several journalists who resigned from state media in protest at the August 2020 contested presidential election in Belarus, when President Alexander Lukashenko claimed victory in a vote opposition politicians say was flawed. Opposition le

The founder of an independent Belarusian press group and several associates taken into custody last week have been charged with tax evasion and related crimes in a case that comes against the backdrop of a continuing state crackdown on dissent.
The daughter of Press Club founder Yulia Slutskaya said via Facebook that her mother had been charged with large-scale tax evasion.
A lawyer for the group confirmed the charges against Slutskaya and said charges alleged that at least four staff members were being charged as co-conspirators.
