Russia has convicted Ksenia Karelina to 12 years in prison for treason after she donated around R913 to a charity aiding Ukraine in its conflict with Russia.Karelina, 33, an amateur ballerina, is in a relationship with Chris van Heerden, a former South African professional boxer.According to the BBC, Karelina, an American and Russian citizen, pleaded guilty, following a closed-door trial. She had reportedly been residing in Los Angeles.However, in January of 2023, she was arrested in Yekaterinburg, Russia, while on a family visit.Van Heerden was reportedly extremely upset at this situation and has since announced his retirement, according to Boxing Scene.“I woke up to the news this morning. I am still sitting here processing what’s happening. There was a prisoner swap two weeks ago, and Ksenia was not on that list.”The Russia/US swop deal - the biggest since the end of the Cold War - involved 24 people and seven countries.“Ksenia should be home, and I am angry, and I am trying to hold my composure,” he told CBS News after the news broke.Additionally, he told the BBC that he wanted to break down, weep, shout, and loose his mind. But, that he knows he has to be strong and keep battling.“She is a very soft person with a very kind heart and I am afraid for her. I am afraid that her kind heart will be stepped on and I know that she is fearful,” he was quoted as saying of his girlfriend.The White House National Security Council spokesman John Kirby told media the sentence imposed on Karelina was “vindictive cruelty”.On his retirement, Van Heerden wrote on X: “After much reflection, I have decided to announce my retirement. This decision comes from a deep place of gratitude and introspection, as boxing has given me so much over the years. Throughout my career, I have been fortunate to travel the world and compete on international stages.”IOL
