Belarus Supreme Court issues posthumous sentence to Nazi collaborator Alexander Buglai

The Supreme Court of Belarus has issued a posthumous verdict convicting Nazi collaborator Alexander Buglai of genocide against the Belarusian people. During World War II, Alexander Buglai led punitive operations in the territories of Minsk, Mogilev, and Gomel regions. Under his command, mass shootings of civilians, destruction of villages, and forced deportations of people into slavery were carried out. Almost 80 years ago, a manhunt was launched for him in the USSR, but the West refused to extradite the traitor and double agent. Buglai died abroad, never having faced punishment during his lifetime. This court ruling marks the eighth posthumous conviction of Nazi criminals and their accomplices in modern Belarusian history.
