March 19, Pozirk.<\/em><\/strong> A solidarity campaign for Maryja Kale\u015bnikava, organized by Belarusian musician Nasta Niakrasava and Warsaw University lecturer Katarzyna Naliwajek, has begun in Poland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The campaign’s Facebook page suggests sending sheet music to the library of Homiel’s Penal Colony No. 4, where the political prisoner is serving her sentence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a letter, Maryja wrote that she missed music and urged supporters to send her music scores so that she could visualize them in her head, the activists said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We know that Maryja is not allowed to play an instrument and cannot receive parcels or money transfers. This gesture of solidarity makes a difference!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kale\u015bnikava, spokeswoman for former presidential hopeful Viktar Babaryka, was arrested on September 7, 2020, and taken to the Ukrainian border the following night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She refused to leave the country and tore up her passport. She was then placed in a detention center. On September 6, 2021, she was sentenced to 11 years in prison on charges of conspiracy to overthrow the government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In November 2022, Kale\u015bnikava underwent surgery at Homiel’s emergency hospital, where she was taken in serious condition. The political prisoner was diagnosed with peritonitis (inflammation of the peritoneum).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The colony administration keeps her incommunicado, so there is practically no information about her condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the age of 17, Kale\u015bnikava taught flute at a gymnasium in Minsk. She played in the opera theater, Michai\u0142 Finbierh’s orchestra and the Presidential Orchestra. She often toured in Italy, Lithuania and Poland. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2007 she moved to Germany and entered the higher school of music in Stuttgart. She studied early and contemporary music at two faculties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the 2010s she gave concerts and organized international cultural projects in Germany and Belarus.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
