Ihar Leanard runs the TikTok account "AVANTURIST.BY," where he publishes videos about corruption, business schemes, kickbacks, and other problematic topics in Belarusian business. Currently, the account has over 17.5 thousand subscribers.
On April 1, the Court of the Chyhunachny District of Vitsebsk added this TikTok account to the list of "extremist materials."
However, according to Ihar himself, the matter did not end there. In one of his videos, he reported that a criminal case had probably also been opened against him.
According to him, the reason for this was a popular video that garnered about 350 thousand views and more than 13 thousand likes. In it, Ihar Leanard commented on the visit of Belarusian propagandists to the Iranian embassy in Minsk and questioned why they did not make similar statements in support of Ukraine at the beginning of the Russian attack on it.
