The defendant in the so-called Hizb ut-Tahrir case, Zekirya Muratov, has not received medical assistance since the moment of his arrest, despite the fact that he has a disability, serious diseases of the musculoskeletal system, hypertension and angina pectoris. This was reported by the Ombudswoman of the Verkhovna Rada for Human Rights Liudmyla Denysova via her Facebook page.
“Zekirya Muratov has not received medical assistance since his arrest, and he has not undergone a medical and sanitary expert commission to prolong his disability group recognition. I emphasize that such actions are in direct violation of Article 3 of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, paragraph 22 of the Standard Minimum Rules for the Treatment of Prisoners approved by the UN Economic and Social Council”,- she said.
Denisova appealed to the Ombudswoman for Human Rights in the Russian Federation, Tatyana Moskalkova, with a demand to take urgent measures to restore the violated rights of Zekirya Muratov – to provide access to medical services, namely, to conduct a full qualified medical examination and provide an appropriate complex of treatment.
