In July 2021, the office of Viasna and the houses of its people were looked for. Almost all representatives of Viasna who were in Belarus at that time, including Ales Bialiatski, were arrested. It was done as a part of the pogrom of NGOs in Belarus. These people were arrested on the criminal charges of getting riots ready and tax evasion. They were named political prisoners like Rabkova, Sudalenka, Lasitsa, and Chapiuk.
