On Monday, August 17, during the so-called court session in the so-called second Bakhchisaray Hizb ut-Tahrir case, the Southern District Military Court in Rostov-on-Don issued a private ruling against the lawyer Lilia Hemedzhi due to “multiple violations of the rules of court hearings.” This was reported by the Crimean Solidarity public association.
“I think the court deliberately moved towards issuing a private ruling. At the last meeting, they tried to bring my colleague and me to administrative responsibility. As the head of the bailiffs told us, he did this with the sanction of the presiding judge in the criminal process. My client was also removed from the trial. I heard half of what was read to me, but as I understand it, most of the remarks are related to the interrogation of the operative officer Artykbaiev”,- the lawyer said.
Hemedzhi also stressed that she asked for an opportunity to make a remark on the stated petition and on the speech of the prosecutor for three times, but judge Zubairov once again violated the code of judicial ethics and addressed the defender in a raised tone.
The Bar Association plans to challenge this definition.
