Journalist Vladyslav Yesypenko left under arrest

May 27, 2021

On Wednesday, May 26, the so-called Supreme Court of the occupied Crimea rejected an appeal against the extension of the arrest of a freelance worker of Radio Freedom Vladyslav Yesypenko. He will remain in jail until July 11, 2021.

We remind that on March 10, 2021, in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation detained a citizen of Ukraine Vladyslav Yesypenko for gathering information in the interests of the special services of Ukraine. The man was taken into custody until May 11. The political prisoner was tortured with electricity for two days. Thus, the first confessions were obtained from him.
