On Thursday, July 30, the so-called Supreme Court of the occupied Crimea rejected an appeal against the ruling of the so-called Court of Armyansk to leave unchanged the preventive measure against the national leader of the Crimean Tatars Mustafa Dzhemilev. Lawyer Nikolai Polozov reported about it via his Facebook page.

“In violation of the law, the Armyansk court did not raise the issue of the measure of restraint for discussion by the parties, did not give the defense the opportunity to express their opinion and state their legal position, making a decision independently and notifying the defense about the decision made only when the decision was announced”,- Polozov explained.
The lawyer stressed that the decision of the so-called court of first instance, made with gross violation of the right to defense, should have been undoubtedly canceled. But the so-called Supreme Court of Crimea did not see any grounds for cancellation and refused to satisfy the appeal.
Mustafa Dzhemilev is charged under Part 3 of Article 322 of the Criminal Code of Russia – Illegal crossing of the state border of Russia, according to Part 1 of Article 222 – Illegal acquisition, transfer, sale, storage, transportation or carrying of weapons, their main parts, ammunition and under Article 224 – Careless possession of firearms, which created conditions for its use by another person, if this entailed the death of a person or other grave consequences.
