On October 14, another trial of political prisoner Palina Sharenda-Panasiuk under Article 411 of the Criminal Code (malicious disobedience to the requirements of the penal colony administration) took place in the Rečyca District Court. Judge Stanislau Ivaniutsenka, who already added a year to the woman's sentence last year, has sentenced Palina to one year and one day in a general security penal colony.

The husband of the political prisoner, Andrei Sharenda-Panasiuk, announced the verdict on his Facebook page. The state prosecution was represented by prosecutor Yauhen Malaletnikau.

Recall that Palina was detained on January 3, 2021 and has been imprisoned ever since. Her sentence has already been extended twice under Article 411 of the Criminal Code. Two sons, Slavamir and Stakh, are waiting for her release.

In July, Palina's relatives learned that the woman had been diagnosed with "chronic pancreatitis of moderate severity." Recently, her husband wrote about a severe deterioration in Palina's health.
