Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya: “The last time I heard from my husband, Siarhei, was on March 9. I haven't heard anything about him ever since. Neither have I received any letters, nor has the lawyer passed any information. The families of Viktar Babaryka, Maryia Kalesnikava, Mikalai Statkevich, Pavel Seviarynets, Ihar Losik, Maxim Znak and many other people witness the same situation.
This is another attempt by the regime to oppress both the political prisoners, who are deprived of contact with the outside world and held in deplorable conditions, and their families, who have to live their lives knowing nothing about their loved ones. No matter how strong and resilient I may want to be, my thoughts every day are with Siarhei. It is extremely difficult to live your life when you don't know if your husband is even alive”.
