Belarus sprinter leaves Tokyo for Vienna after refusing to go home
Belarusian sprinter Krystsina Tsimanouskaya left Tokyo aboard a flight to Vienna on Wednesday, less than 72 hours after refusing her team's orders to return home. After spending two nights in Poland's embassy, the 24-year-old walked onto the plane at Narita airport. She was initially due to leave on a flight to Warsaw. A Polish government source said she was switched at the last minute to a flight to Vienna, over concerns about her privacy and security after news of the plan became public and reporters booked seats on the flight.
