According to ByPol, this person is Andrey Trapashka

, a senior inspector on duty of the operational duty service of the Traffic Police Department of the Internal Affairs Department of the Minsk Oblast Executive Committee .

However, the Lithuanian publication 15min.lt writes that, in fact, the person who filmed the Belarusian action on camera is the Lithuanian journalist

Darius Matajtis

, the representative of Scanpix Baltics in Lithuania.

In an interview with 15min.lt, Darius Mataitis said: "This is not the first time I am recording the activities of the Belarusian opposition in Lithuania.

There are quite a lot of their photos in the Scanpix photo bank.

That day, I saw that a person came very close to me and was filming me on a video or phone.

Then I immediately thought that this could cause problems in the future, but he just filmed, did not ask me to introduce myself, did not ask where I was from."

When asked whether someone asked him that evening to show the accreditation, Mataitis answered in the negative.

"There was also a police patrol nearby, they could file a statement right away, I would show all the documents," the journalist said.

Darius Mataitis emphasized that public events can be filmed in Lithuania without additional permission.
