The defendant in the so-called Hizb ut-Tahrir case, Eskender Suleymanov, was in a cell with a man who had contracted tuberculosis. The political prisoner underwent fluorography, but he cannot get the results of the medical examination. This was reported by the Crimean Solidarity public association.
“We have repeatedly appealed to the head of the pre-trial detention center to be checked again. A week ago there was a check. Eskender underwent repeated fluorography, but the results are not reported. The silence of the results creates suspicions”,- said lawyer Rustem Kyamilev.
We remind that on June 10, Russian security forces conducted mass searches in the dwellings of Crimean Tatars in Alushta, Bilohirsk and Simferopol. As a result, 8 people were detained on suspicion of their involvement in the Hizb ut-Tahrir organization banned in the Russian Federation. On June 10 and 11, the so-called Kyiv District Court of Simferopol chose a preventive measure in the form of detention until August 5 for the Crimean Tatars detained after searches – Riza Omerov, Enver Omerov, Ayder Dzhepparov, Eskender Suleymanov, Ruslan Nagaev, Eldar Kantimirov, Ruslan Mensutov and Lenur Khalilov. Subsequently, all the defendants in the so-called case were repeatedly extended the terms of their arrest.
