She was detained for drawing "Pahonia" stencils. On September 20, the Central District Court of Minsk sentenced three political prisoners: Anatoly Latushka, the cousin of politician Pavel Latushko, Lilia Ananyan, and Elena Malinovskaya. At the trial, Latushko and Malinovskaya pleaded not guilty, while Ananyan fully admitted her guilt. Judge Dmitry Karsyuk sentenced Anatoly to six years in prison, Elena to four years in prison, and Lilia to five years of house arrest, before releasing her in the courtroom.
Elena has a minor son left at home.
Elena was supposed to be released at the end of August 2025, but she was never released. As Elena's friends told Nasha Niva , she was transported to Minsk, where a new criminal case was opened against her .
How to write a letter
✏️ A postcard with words of encouragement (a poem by your favorite author, song lyrics, or a beautiful quote). Trust us, even such simple gestures are very meaningful to a person in jail.
✏️ Your life events. To a person who is in isolation for a long time, any story about your routine endeavors will be a window into normal life. Your day-to-day worries and mundane matters are much more interesting than the daily grind of life behind bars.
✏️ It is important to share news. Mention the most notable and interesting occurrences depending on your pen-pal's interests.
✍️️ Remember that every letter is censored. This means that your letters are read by strangers whose main goal is to limit inmates' access to information or to use it against the prisoners or even you.
So try to avoid:
👉️️ harsh statements regarding ongoing political matters
👉 statements against the authorities and public servants
👉 foul language
👉 discussion of the circumstances of the criminal case
