After transferring the so-called Hizb ut-Tahrir case defendant Enver Omerov from the occupied Crimea to Rostov-on-Don, the political prisoner was placed in a punishment cell for 15 days without explanation. The Crimean Tatar Resource Center was informed about this by his daughter Fatma.

“We don’t know much. We know about the punishment cell, but the reason is unknown”,- the daughter said.

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 Mesutov and Lenur Khalilov.
