Person:notes | Judge at Navapolatsk City Court | ch_seco_sanctions | ch-seco-65341 | ||||
Person:notes | In her position as judge of the Navapolatsk City Court, Zinaida Balabalava is responsible for numerous politically-motivated rulings against peaceful protesters, in particular the sentencing of union leader Volha Bytsikava and of activists Hanna Tukava and Andrei Halavyryn. She has subjected people to fines and arrests for publishing “no war” signs or independent trial reporting. She is therefore responsible for serious human rights violations and for seriously undermining the rule of law, as well as for the repression of civil society and democratic opposition in Belarus. | ch_seco_sanctions | ch-seco-65341 | ||||
