Huseyn Huseynov, a resident of Henichesk, became a victim of the latest wave of persecution. According to the occupation “department of the FSB of Russia” in the Kherson region, he was sentenced to 3 years and 6 months in prison for allegedly participating in the Noman Chelebidzhikhan battalion.

The battalion, which advocated the blockade of the occupied Crimea and its return to Ukraine, was declared a terrorist organization by the Russian authorities.

According to the decision of the occupation “court”, he will serve part of his sentence in prison, and the rest – in a strict regime penal colony.
