July 19, 2022

On Tuesday, July 19, the Southern District Military Court in Rostov-on-Don announced the verdict to Azamat Eiupov, a defendant in the so-called Hizb ut-Tahrir case.

The occupants sentenced Azamat Eiupov to 17 years in prison in a strict regime colony with the first 3 years in prison and another 1.5 years of restriction of freedom.

The Crimean Tatar Resource Center strongly protests and states that this decision is illegal, politically motivated and criminal. This policy of the Russian Federation is a demonstration of the fight against the political beliefs of people in the occupied Crimea.

The Crimean Tatar Resource Center demands the annulment of the sentence of the person involved in the case and the immediate release of other political prisoners.
