Belarus: Activist fights to stop extradition from Serbia DW 08/28/2024
Briefly

Andrey Gnyot, a Belarus activist, faces extradition to Minsk amidst accusations of tax evasion, which his lawyers argue is politically motivated due to his actions against Lukashenko.
Gnyot claims arrested on an INTERPOL warrant after authorities in Belarus charged him with tax evasion tied to his activism, including founding the SOS-BY initiative.
Despite pressures, the Belarus Free Association of Athletes SOS-BY, co-founded by Gnyot, successfully influenced international sports organizations to cut ties with Belarus.
The Belarus regime, under Lukashenko, labels dissenting groups like SOS-BY as 'extremist,' revealing the ongoing crackdown on political opposition in the country.
