Pavel Seviarynets’ mother collects facts of lawlessness to apply to international structures
Tatsiana Seviarynets, the mother of a KGB prisoner
Pavel Seviarynets, has to file complains against actions of workers of the
investigative isolator of the KGB and against actions of officers of the procuracy
in order to get answers to her concrete questions.
She was especially indignant at receiving a runaround from her complaint to the
procuracy concerning unlawful actions of the KGB (State Security Committee). The
answer reads that her complaint was forwarded to the KGB, though she had
addressed KGB with an appropriate complaint back on 13 January.
As far as these runarounds keep coming from the Prosecutor General, Vasilevich,
on 31 January Tatsiana Seviarynets visited the procuracy and demanded a meeting
with him. ‘There I was told that at first I needed to meet with deputy
prosecutors and address directly Vasilevich only if they would fail to solve my
problem,’ says the woman.
On 31 January she also lodged a complaint with the KGB, demanding that her son
was allowed to meet with a doctor and was given the medicines she has passed to
him two times already.
Tatsiana Seviarynets also expresses her indignation at the recent statement of
the procuracy concerning the results of a check-up of the conditions in
investigative isolators.
According to Tatsiana Seviarynets, the authorities violate Article 48, part 23
of the Criminal Process Code which guarantees the uninhibited meetings of attorneys
with their defendants, whereas Pavel Seviarynets hasn’t had a meeting with his
attorney since 29 December. The internal regulations of investigative isolators
of the state security organs of the Republic
of Belarus are violated
as well. For instance, it concerns correspondence (Tatsiana received only one
letter from Pavel – No.5 for 12 January) and meetings with attorneys.
