Dmitry Suvkhanov is the brother of Marat Suvkhanov, who died in Ukraine in February 2023, fighting on the side of the Russian occupation forces.
The moderator of the meeting in the Svetlogorsk district court was again Kristina Kasyanova. She considered the charge against Dmitry Suvkhanov under Part 2 of Art. 367, with which the authorities punish for slandering Lukashenko.
Thus, the authorities violated Suvkhanov’s right to have his case examined by an independent and impartial court. After all, citizen Kasyanova is in a state of labor dependence on a person whom Suvkhanov allegedly slandered: Menaut Lukashenko, by his decree, appointed Kasyanova to the position of judge and if he is dissatisfied with her actions, only he can dismiss her from that position.
