Von Ossietsky, who was arrested three years ago in a raid on Adolf Hitler’s enemies after a fire in the Reichstag (headquarters of the German parliament), is the first dissident of a regime anywhere in the world to win this prestigious award.
Adolf Hitler, enraged by the Norwegian Nobel Committee’s decision, banned all German citizens from accepting Nobel Prizes in any form.
While Osiatsky was unable to receive the certificate and the Nobel Gold Medal, a German lawyer allowed his family to trick him into collecting the prize money. Osiatsky died in captivity in 1938.
– 1991 Aung San Suu Kyi, Myanmar:
Myanmar’s ousted pro-democracy leader won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1991 while under house arrest as part of the country’s military authorities’ crackdown on pro-democracy opposition.
Suu Kyi was rewarded for her “non-violent struggle for democracy and human rights” and feared she would not be allowed to return to Myanmar if she traveled to Oslo.
Her sons and husband attended the award ceremony in 1991 and received the award on her behalf. In a symbolic gesture, an empty chair was placed on the stage.
After her release in 2010, Suu Kyi delivered her Nobel Lecture in 2012. He later assumed the leadership of the country.
But he was arrested again after the generals took power in February 2021. In 2022, he was sentenced to up to 33 years in prison, and military chief Min Aung Hlaing later partially commuted the sentence.

His wife Liu Xia was placed under house arrest after he was declared the winner, and his three brothers were banned from leaving China.
He died of liver cancer in 2017 at the age of 61 in a Chinese hospital after being transferred from prison, becoming the second Nobel laureate to die in prison.

Belarusian human rights activist Ales Bialiatsky was jailed in July 2021. In 2022, he won the Nobel Prize in collaboration with the Russian Memorial Committee and the Ukrainian Center for Civil Rights for documenting war crimes and human rights abuses.
The head of the Vyasna Center, a prominent human rights group, has been at the forefront of those seeking to document abuses by Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko’s regime.
After months of mass protests against Lukashenko’s rule, Bialatsky was arrested on charges of tax evasion, a move opponents saw as a veiled attempt to silence him. He was represented by his wife Natalia Pinchuk.
He was sentenced to 10 years in prison in March. Other members of Vyasna were also sentenced to imprisonment.
