"According to Belarusian legislation, it is impossible to stop a criminal case by some commission.

The criminal and administrative codes prescribe how criminal and administrative cases can be terminated.

This is cheating.

With the first ones to return, they will show that everything is fine with them, and then, after some time, they will all be arrested,"

Azarov noted.

The adviser of the democratic leader

Svetlana Tsikhanovskaya

on legal issues ,

Kristina Richter

, in the comments distributed by the politician's office, urged "not to succumb to the tricks of the regime, which has been deceiving people for almost 30 years."

She said: "the composition of the commission clearly reflects the purpose of its creation.

If the inclusion in the composition of representatives of state structures can still be explained, then

Azaronak, Eismant

and

Mukavozchik

were added there only for propaganda purposes.

The only thing missing is the Umka

spitz

.

The lawyer emphasized that while

Lukashenka

is in power, "there can be no question of a safe return": "at least 58 people in 2022 were detained after returning to Belarus.

The work of this commission has little to do with human rights, moreover, it has exclusively propaganda purposes.

There are no guarantees that after returning to the country, the regime will not make other claims."

The commission for the return of political emigrants created by the authorities is obliged to consider appeals within two months, according to Alexander Lukashenko's decree of February 6 No. 25 "On consideration of appeals by citizens of the Republic of Belarus on issues of their committing offenses."
