Narodnaja Volya (Newspaper)For the 19th century Russian revolutionary group, see Narodnaya Volya.
Narodnaja Volya (Belarusian, Russian: Наро́дная во́ля) is an independent newspaper founded by Iosif Seredich and originally printed in Vilnius, Lithuania. Its circulation is 55,000. Since November 1997, printing was moved to Mensk, Belarus in the private publishing house Magic. It became Belarus' largest independent newspaper. Seredich was the editor-in-chief. The deputy chief editor was Viktor Svirko. On June 18, 2002, a Belarus district court froze the Narodnaya Volya bank account because of defamation charges brought by two judges from Zhodina. The judges sought 2.5 million rubles in damages. On November 17, 2003, the Minsk City Court on 17 ordered Narodnaya Volya to pay 50 million Belarusian rubles in damages for libel against Yahor Rybakou, the chairman of the Belarusian State Television and Radio Company (BDT). The Court also ordered Narodnaya Volya journalist Maryna Koktysh and former television host Eleanora Yazerskaya to pay 3 million Belarusian rubles each to Rybakou.
