The District Prosecutor's Office, having analyzed the messages, found calls to extremism, namely to protests, mass riots, acts of vandalism and hooliganism, as well as violence against the police. The channel administration did not react in any way to the radical publications. On the basis of the Law on Counteraction to Extremism, the court granted the prosecutor's request. As a result, the Ministry of Information must include the resource into the list of extremist materials and block it. And a Vitebsk court reported that "Braslav for Life" and "Postavy for Life" Telegram channels were also recognized as extremist.
