Belarus: CFWIJ Is Concerned By The Lengthy Interrogation Of Tatsiana Nyadbai

Tatsiana Nyadbai, a deputy chairman of Belarusian PEN Centre, was interrogated by an investigation committee. The investigation is linked to a raid conducted on the Press Club and the homes of several of its employees on December 22, 2020. Tatsiana Nyadbai worked as a coordinator with the Press Club up until 2017. She has signed non-disclosure agreements that restrict her from disclosing any details of this interrogation. CFWIJ is troubled by the three-hour questioning of the journalist and considers it an intimidation tactic. We offer Tatsiana our support and hope that the investigative committee will respect the journalist's integrity.
