Person:notes | Iryna Padkavyrava is a prosecutor. She has been associated with the prosecuting authorities since at least 2009, when she served as a senior prosecutor in the Gomel region. In 2022, she acted as a prosecutor in the trial of an independent journalist affiliated with TVP and Belsat TV. At the time, she requested a 4-year prison sentence for the journalist. She also took part in the consideration of appeals against sentences handed down for posting entries on Belarusian social media critical of the government and its officials. As a prosecutor, she supported the penalties, considering them adequate and fair. She is therefore responsible for serious violations of human rights and the repression of civil society and democratic opposition in Belarus. | ch_seco_sanctions | ch-seco-65437 | ||||
