The journalist has worked at the Belarusian Broadcasting Company for 20 years, her husband is an employee of Wargaming.
Journalists of ‘Nasha Niva’ found a cover passport in the possession of the husband of a well-known journalist, who quit the state radio in 2020, headed the Belarusian editorial office of the Polish Wnet radio and audited the Marathon of Solidarity with political prisoners.
It's about the employee of Wargaming company Fiodar Harbachou. Together with his wife Volha Siamashka, he currently lives in Lithuania. In 2018, Harbachou received an operational cover passport in the name of Viktar Makaveyeu, the journalists claim. This document they checked with the help of Baypol. The faces on the passports are identical, while neither phones nor any property in Belarus are registered in Makaveyeu's name.
In a commentary to the publication, Harbachou denies that he has another passport for agent activity.
‘Nasha Niva’ claims that Baypol discovered the passport in Makaveyeu's name back in 2023 and reported it to Tsikhanouskaya's office, but the matter stalled further.
‘We do not check everyone who goes to the democratic movement or independent media - this is the task of the heads of these organisations. If there are doubts, everyone today knows that anyone can be checked through databases. Why weren't she and her circle checked by the organisations she was going to? I don't know. And for my part, having received this information in 2023, I drew conclusions: she did not work for us, there were no connections. I also informed some partners about this information,' Tsikhanouskaya's senior adviser Franak Viachorka commented to the publication.
As Charter97.org previously reported, earlier the Czech Republic accused Belarusian Natallia Sheuko-Sudliankova of working for Russian intelligence.
