Anastasia Vashukevich, also known as Nastya Rybka (on social media), is a Belarusian escort, model, blogger and author. She is quite popular on Instagram with a total of 7.8m followers, but it was not quite social media that gained her a massive following. She made international headlines when she made the shocking claim that she had evidence linking Russian billionaire Oleg Deripaska and Deputy Prime Minister Sergei Prikhodko to the Russian interference circulating the 2016 U.S. presidential election.
Of course, coming out with this top secret information, Vashukevich also stated that she feared for her life, and wanted to seek asylum from the American government. She then went on to campaign for her own personal safety online and via photographs.
Sadly, she was arrested on February 25, 2018 at a hotel in Pattaya, Thailand and was immediately sent to Nong Pla Lai Prison.
