Psychological pressure exerted on a Crimean Tatar minor who was tortured by the so-called police

May 4, 2020

The Crimean Tatar Server Rasylchak, a minor who was tortured by officers of the so-called Saky police, is under psychological pressure by being systematically forced to pass a polygraph test over the phone. This was reported by the Crimea.Realities media agency.

The mother of the teenager notes that two months after the preliminary investigation this criminal case was not completed and the materials with the indictment by the prosecutor of the Saky district were not transferred to the court. She doesn’t exclude that the case will be allegedly terminated “for lack of corpus delicti.”

“The investigator has a mental impact on my child, systematically forcing him to go through a polygraph test by phone. Already because of this threat alone, my minor son Server refused to go through a polygraph, seeing in this an obvious distrust to his explanation about the crime against him committed by the police servicemen”,- the woman notes.

The woman wrote a letter to the President of the Russian Federation in order to protect the conventional rights of the minor Server Rasylchak, and to prosecute police officers who tortured him with a stun gun.

We remind that in January, in the occupied Crimea, servicemen of the so-called Saky police tortured a 17-year-old Crimean Tatar Server Rasylchak with a stun gun and beat him to force him to recognize his involvement in a theft from a car wash. The so-called Russian law enforcement bodies of the annexed peninsula are engaged in checking this information. Later, Server was called to the investigator to testify. A protocol was drawn up on how the beating took place.
