March 7, Pozirk<\/em>.<\/strong> Several thousand people marched through Warsaw on the evening of March 6 to mourn Lizavieta, a Belarusian woman who died after being raped last month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The rally took place at the improvised memorial at \u017burawia 47, where she was attacked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Belarusians, Poles and Ukrainians took part in the march, co-organized by nonprofits from the three countries. Warsaw is a hub for thousands of Belarusians fleeing repression and Ukrainians fleeing the war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHer name is Liza. She was 25, had brown eyes. This is nearly all I know about Liza,\u201d said Nasta Bazar, a feminist activist, noting that they both fled political reprisals in Belarus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhat we have in common is that we are both women, and unfortunately, both exposed to violence,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLiza died in silence because she could not shout. Today, we will shout for her,\u201d she went on to say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe defend ourselves, we are afraid, we are courageous, we shout but we cannot stop violence because to stop violence someone must stop being violent,\u201d she appealed to men.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe all want one thing \u2013 every woman and every man should be safe.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jolanda Gawenda, of Poland\u2019s Feminoteka, criticized police for not responding resolutely enough to the crime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lizavietta was raped and nearly strangled in downtown Warsaw in the early morning of February 25. She died in hospital on March 1 without regaining consciousness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Polish police, a 23-year-old suspect was arrested hours after the incident. He is accused of a sex crime, robbery and attempted murder with the use of a dangerous weapon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
