Human rights defender Ales Bialiatski, sentenced to
4.5 years in a high security colony for alleged tax evasion on 24 November, has
been transferred to the notorious Zhodzina prison.
His wife Natallia learned about it by chance – today she paid a visit to the
pre-trial prison where he had been kept, in order to pass him a parcel. The
regime in the Zhodzina prison is stricter and the conditions are worse.
Meanwhile, on 29 November Bialiatski's lawyer filed an appeal against the
sentence with the Minsk City Court. The day of the trial hasn't been appointed
so far.

Zhodzina, prison #8, for Bialiatski A.V.
