Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya and four other opposition figures were tried in their absence in the Belarusian capital
A court in Belarus on Monday sentenced exiled opposition leader Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya to 15 years in prison after a trial in absentia on charges including conspiring to overthrow the government, the latest move in a months-long effort by the Belarusian government to suppress dissent.
Lukashenko unleashed a brutal crackdown on the demonstrators, accusing the opposition of plotting to overthrow the government; key politicians and activists were either arrested or pressured to leave the country.
