Veterans of the Crimean Tatar movement demand a meeting with Aksyonov

July 9, 2020

On Thursday, July 9, veterans of the Crimean Tatar movement went to the government building of the occupied Crimea for the second time to meet with the so-called head of the peninsula, Sergei Aksyonov, and listen to his apologies for the publications in which he thanked the FSB for the mass searches on July 7.

We remind that on July 7, Russian security forces conducted mass searches in the dwellings of Crimean Tatars in the Bakhchisaray, Krasnohvardiiske and Simferopol regions of the occupied Crimea. Seven people were detained. All of them were taken to the FSB in Simferopol. On July 7, the so-called Kyiv District Court of Simferopol sent under house arrest a disabled person of the first group, Oleksandr Syzykov. On July 8, the so-called Kyiv District Court of the occupied Crimea chose a preventive measure for Ismet Ibrahimov, Zekirya Muratov and Vadym Bektemyrov in the form of detention.
