Ksenia Sobchak caught on CCTV camera by Lithuanian border with Belarus ( III sisters) She is heard being asked by a male border control officer: 'Where are you heading?' She asks him to repeat the questions and replies: 'To Lithuania.' Sobchak is then seen being accompanied by two uniformed men as she carries her own bag to the actual frontier. The video was leaked, likely with official sanction, to a Telegram channel called Three Sisters with less than 2,000 subscribers. It has links to the security apparatus of Belarus president Alexander Lukashenko.
