Maryia Kalesnikava is member of the presidium of the Coordination Council, head of the campaign headquarters of former presidential nominee Viktar Babaryka. She was abducted on September 7, 2020 in Minsk and, along with two other members of the Coordination Council, Anton Radniankou and Ivan Krautsou, forcibly brought to the Ukrainian border to be expelled from the country. However, by tearing her passport and jumping out of the car, Kalesnikava foiled the special operation of deportation organized by the security forces. On September 6, 2021, the Minsk Regional Court sentenced Kalesnikava to 11 years in a general-security penal colony. Photo HRY
