Postcard for my imprisoned friend

❤️You can’t chain the heart!

Today my friend Abastasiya Piatrova, talented violinist and junior automated tester celebrates her Birthday in prison.

👮She was just stolen from the street in Minsk with coffee and pizza for making a video of the 10 years old children being caught by the police.

Earlier this year she left the Presidential Orchestra (Major Belarussian orchestra) because of political reasons and in near future most likely will lose her job in National Theater of Opera and Ballet because of imprisonment for 15 days.

I have known about her situation on the 4th day only, because imprisoning the person has recently become such a usual thing in Belarus, that nobody even thinks about the necessity to declare it out loud on personal pages. More than that, you can be… yes, imprisoned for such declaration)

💌Right now Anastasiya writes in letters how she handles sleeping without a mattress, how they support each other in a prison cell, and worries about a small garden at her home.

Anastasia has a brave heart, which can’t be chained.

👉And today, on her birthday, you can celebrate the women's bravery just by telling this story of a young brave violinist!

You can also support Anastasiya with job opportunities.
