“The Moscow City Court has appointed the consideration of the appeal of the defense of the Ukrainian political prisoner Ivan Yatskin, in connection with the extension of his term of detention, for September 3 at 10:30”,- the statement said.
We remind that at the beginning of December 2019, Russian security forces in the occupied Crimea detained Ivan Yatskin, a resident of Simferopol, on charges of alleged high treason. Subsequently, the man was transferred to Moscow. He was arrested until March 16, 2020. Ivan Yatskin's lawyer, Nikolai Polozov, signed a non-disclosure agreement in the so-called case.
