The defendants in the so-called Hizb ut-Tahrir case: Enver Omerov, Riza Omerov and Ayder Dzhapparov were transferred from occupied Crimea to Rostov-on-Don. The first court session is essentially scheduled for May 7, 2020. It is reported by the Crimean Solidarity public association.
“Today, Enver Omerov’s daughter, Fatma Ismailova, visited the Simferopol pre-trial detention center. The pre-trial detention center reported that the prisoners were transferred to Rostov-on-Don on April 29. The first court session is scheduled for May 7, 2020 in this so-called criminal case. How we will participate, I’m not ready to speak yet, we will contact the court and I admit that the meeting will be postponed due to quarantine restrictions and the epidemiological situation”,- said lawyer Nazim Sheikhmambetov.
We remind that on June 10, Russian security forces conducted mass searches in the dwellings of Crimean Tatars in Alushta, Bilohirsk and Simferopol. As a result, 8 people were detained on suspicion of their involvement in the Hizb ut-Tahrir organization banned in the Russian Federation. On June 10 and 11, the so-called Kyiv District Court of Simferopol chose a preventive measure in the form of detention until August 5 for the Crimean Tatars detained after searches – Riza Omerov, Enver Omerov, Ayder Dzhepparov, Eskender Suleymanov Ruslan Nagaev, Eldar Kantimirov, Ruslan Mensutov and Lenur Khalilov.
