Like thousands of others in Belarus, IT specialist Aliaksandr Charnavoki took to the streets of Minsk last year for unprecedented protests against strongman Alexander Lukashenko s 26-year rule.
Arrested, struck by police and held in detention for four days, Charnavoki eventually fled to neighboring Ukraine joining an exodus of fellow tech workers that has left the future of a booming IT sector in doubt.
It was not the violence and lawlessness that made him leave, Charnavoki, 39, told AFP in an interview on messenger Telegram.
