Once we had the information on the suspects from the Cyber Partisans, I wrote in the victims' group chats that it was time to identify the punishers.
The guys who had stayed in Belarus were, for obvious reasons, reluctant to take part in the identification. But those who had managed to leave Belarus readily agreed to a call and to identify the punishers.
Several detainees identified Major Slyunkov, who directed the arrests and beatings on Independence Avenue near Building 2 of the Ministry of Defense. Torik and Goncharenok were also identified.
Everyone who was at the Sovetsky district police department (RUVD) on the night of August 10–11 identified Kalinnik, Kessel and Safonova without hesitation.
Several people recognized without a doubt Shabunya, who beat and abused the detainees in the police van (avtozak) to Zhodino prison. Dubrovsky and Opechenok were also identified.
