April 2, Pozirk<\/em>.<\/strong> Journalist Dzianis Iva\u0161yn was allowed a four-hour visit by his mother for the first time since December 2022, his wife Volha said on Facebook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He looked thin but did not complain of any health issues and was in an optimistic mood, she added, citing her husband’s mother.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In September 2022, Iva\u0161yn was given 13 years and one month in prison on charges of high treason and illegal handling of personal data. He is held at Prison No 8 in \u017dodzina, Minsk region. Rights groups consider him a political prisoner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Iva\u0161yn was a volunteer editor at Ukraine\u2019s InfromNapalm<\/em> and cooperated with Belarus\u2019 independent weekly Novy \u010cas<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He investigated Russian meddling in Belarus, construction at a Soviet-era massacre site, and the controversial recruitment of former Ukrainian riot police officers by Belarus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following the journalist’s arrest in March 2021, the Committee for State Security accused him of spying for Ukraine and causing damage to Belarus\u2019 national security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At least 34 media workers are behind bars in Belarus, according to the Belarusian Association of Journalists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
