Evidentiary limitations

The charge is not stated in any located source and must not be inferred. The Rights Defense Network groups her in its “sentenced to 4 years” bucket while the CHRD database records 3 years 6 months — a source-level discrepancy noted here without resolution. The exact dates of sentencing within September–October 2025 are not given. No further detail is inferred.
