Write a letter

Resident of Irkutsk. On 27 June 2025, she was sentenced to five and a half years in a general regime colony in a case of justifying terrorism because of comments about the war in Ukraine.

According to Doroshchenko's friend, employees of the Centre "E" "collected sentences like 'I am against war' or 'they [Ukrainians] defend their Motherland' and similar phrases in her posts and made a criminal case up".

Doroshchenko's father was an Internal Affairs Ministry general and for a time headed the Ust-Kut police. He left the Ministry of Internal Affairs in 2005.
