On 14 February 2011 the police detained two youth activists, Nadzeya Krapivina, and Veranika Lemianouskaya, on suspicion in making political graffiti. Veranika's father, Mikola Lemianouski, is a member of the Belarusian Popular Front Party.

After the detention, the police searched the Lemianouskis' apartment and confiscated two system units and some old newspapers. The system units weren't sealed by the police, and a copy of the confiscation report was issued to Mr. Lemianouski only on his insistent demand. Later Nadzeya Krapivina and Veranika Lemianouskaya were sentenced to pay 700,000 rubles fine each. Though they had paid the fines long ago, the computer equipment hasn't been returned.

Mikola Lemianouski intends to file a complaint concerning this violation of the law.
