Timeline
His parents met in a labor camp in Cologne, Germany, in 1943.
His father was Belarusian while his mother was of Ukrainian origin.
Zakharanka has a daughter with Volha Zakharanka.
At the moment when Belarus gained independence Zakharanka was deputy chief of the USSR MVD Inter-regional Directorate for Combating Organized Crime.
Colonel Yury Mikalevich Zakharanka (Юрый Мікалаевіч Захаранка; Юрий Захаренко; 1 January 1952 – disappeared 9 May 1999) was a Belarusian military officer, politician, and pro-democracy activist who served as Minister of Internal Affairs from 1994 to 1995.
In 1994 he was appointed Minister of Internal Affairs of Belarus.
On October 16, 1995 he was dismissed from this position by president Alexander Lukashenko.
Zakharanka joined the opposition to the president and was elected member of the governing board of the United Civic Party of Belarus.
Having strong support among top officers in the army and the State Security Committee (KGB), Zakharanka was a dangerous enemy for Lukashenko.
Following his departure from office, Zakharanka became a leading member of the Belarusian opposition, leading to his enforced disappearance and likely death in 1999.
Yury Zakharanka was born in a small Belarusian town of Vasilyevichy, Rechytsa Raion.
The ex-minister disappeared on the evening of May 7, 1999.
The state did not make serious attempts to search for the politician.
Several years later the former MVD official Aleh Alkaeu fled to Germany and stated that he was witness to Zakharanka and several other abducted opposition leaders being murdered on the orders of top government officials.
In September 2004, the European Union and the United States issued travel bans for five Belarusian officials suspected of being involved in the kidnapping of Zakharanka: Interior Affairs Minister Vladimir Naumov, Prosecutor General Viktor Sheiman, Minister for Sports and Tourism Yuri Sivakov, and Colonel Dmitry Pavlichenko from the Belarus Interior Ministry.
In commemoration of the abducted politicians and political prisoners of Belarus, the Belarusian opposition and its supporters have The Day of Solidarity with Belarus on the 16th of every month.
Harauski fled to Switzerland in 2018, seeking asylum.
In 2023 Harauski was arrested and charged with the forced disappearance of Zacharanka, Hanchar and Krasouski.
Harauski's trial in a Swiss court opened on 19 September 2023.
In December 2019, Deutsche Welle published a documentary film in which Yury Harauski, a former member of the Special Rapid Response Unit, confirmed that it was his unit that had arrested, taken away and murdered Zakharanka, and that they later did the same with Viktar Hanchar and Anatol Krasouski.
