Today, June 1, the Supreme Court of Crimea has scheduled the consideration of the appeal against the sentence of journalist Iryna Danylovych for June 15. This was reported by the human rights organization Crimean Process with reference to Danylovych’s relatives.
According to the father of Iryna Danylovych, Bronislav Danylovych, the return of the case was provoked by the fact that the defendant did not get acquainted with all the audio records of the court sessions. The reason for this is long-term health problems, specifically with hearing. Danylovych is not provided with medical assistance, despite complaints and promises.
After the case was returned to the Feodosiia city court, no action was taken to eliminate the violations.
Two weeks later, judge Natalya Kulinskaya sent the materials to the court of appeal.
We remind you that on April 29, in the occupied Crimea in the village of Vladyslavivka near Feodosiia, Russian security forces searched the house of civilian journalist Iryna Danylovych, after which the woman was detained.
On March 22, Iryna Danylovych went on a dry hunger strike until she was provided with normal medical treatment or until her death. She took this step in protest against the bullying of her by the administration of the pre-trial detention center because of the failure to provide medical assistance.
On April 4, the management of the pre-trial detention center promised to provide Iryna with an opportunity to undergo an examination, after which the activist stopped her hunger strike, but so far she has not been provided with any treatment.
