(Reuters) - Jailed Belarusian dissident Maria Kalesnikava, a key figure in the opposition movement to President Alexander Lukashenko, was permitted to meet her father on Tuesday, the first time any picture of her has been seen in well over a year.
A picture of Kalesnikava with her father appeared on the Telegram messaging app, posted by Roman Protasevich, a former jailed dissident who now says he is acting as an intermediary between authorities and Belarusians living in exile abroad.
Uh-oh! Daily quota reached.
