Mielnikava at PACE
April 9, Pozirk. Files related to the opposition Coordination Council (CC) were downloaded from missing speaker Anžalika Mielnikava’s account on March 13 days before her associates lost contact with her, acting speaker Stasia Hlińnik said during a videoconference on April 8.
Warsaw-based politician Pavieł Łatuška told Pozirk that Mielnikava has not been in touch since March 25 with Polish counterterror police involved in efforts to track her location.
The downloaded documents included reports, interviews, a strategic plan, a draft budget, internal reports and other operational documents for the period from July 2024, Hlińnik said.
The download location is unknown, but Hlińnik confirmed a previous report of Mielnikava’s mobile phone logging in from Belarus on March 19.
Hlińnik urged all CC members “to take this information responsibly and assess their risks.”
Media reported that the CC speaker might have traveled from Poland to the United Kingdom, citing a flight booking in her name.
