Be­laru­sian Olympic runner Timanovskaya is

The Belarusian Olympic runner Kristina Timanovskaya is “safe and secure”, according to the International Olympic Committee (IOC). The athlete, who the opposition believes should be kidnapped from Tokyo by the authoritarian authorities in her country, spent the night in a hotel at Tokyo's Haneda Airport in a "safe environment," said IOC spokesman Mark Adams on Monday. It is in the hands of the authorities, he said, but without giving any details. A written report was requested from the NOK in their country. One must first wait for the exact background and details of the incident.
