At the beginning of May, when many workers of the budget sphere were freed from work because of the 1 May holidays, officers of the Presidential Administration and the education department of the Vitsebsk Regionl Executive Committee checked up the secondary schools in the town of Orsha. The official reason for the check up was the 11 April terrorist act in the Minsk metro.

All teachers had to come to work to have talks with the commission, especially those who taught physics and chemistry. According to the teachers, members of the commission behaved as if the pupils were taught only how to make explosives and estimate the force and direction of the explosive waves.

In one of the schools members of the commission found a safe which nobody could open, because the keys had been lost long time ago. As a result, some workers had to saw off the hinges. However, after the safe was opened, the commission found there only correspondence dated 1960-1970-ies.
