Thousands of activists were arrested in the crackdown and the key leaders of the opposition movement are now either jailed or in exile. Last March, Belarusian prosecutors charged Tikhanovskaya in absentia with “preparing acts of terrorism as part of an organised group”, according to Belarusian state news agency Belta.

Belarus and its leadership are already under a litany of Western sanctions over its handling of the opposition protest and over its support for Moscow’s campaign in Ukraine.On Wednesday, a Belarusian court in the city of Grodno started a closed-door hearing in the case against 12 activists accused of “preparing acts of terrorism”, according to Belarusian rights group Vyasna.

Capital punishment in Belarus — carried out by shooting — is highly secret and there are no official statistics.
