This is the best summary I could come up with:

Twenty-four years after three prominent opposition figures vanished in Belarus, a former member of the country’s special forces is to stand trial in a Swiss court.

In media interviews, Mr Garavsky has given a detailed account of how a secret hit squad snatched the three opponents of Alexander Lukashenko, Belarus’ leader, from the streets of Minsk, drove them out of town and then shot them twice in the back.

The prosecution is a stark reminder that political repression in Belarus, which captured the world’s attention again when mass opposition protests were crushed in 2020, has deep and very dark roots.

For the families of the three disappeared - former interior minister Yury Zakharenko, opposition politician Viktor Gonchar and pro-opposition businessman Anatoly Krasovsky - it is an important moment after years of agonising uncertainty about their fate.

Speaking in 2019 to Germany’s Deutsche Welle and the Swiss newspaper Neue Zürcher Zeitung, Garavsky confessed to kidnapping the three opponents of Alexander Lukashenko and to handling the murder weapon.

In 2003, a Council of Europe investigation also linked Col Pavlichenko to the forced disappearances and concluded that the crime had been covered-up “at the highest level of state”.
