Izzet Abdullaev was transferred to the city of Dimitrovgrad, Ulyanovsk Region. This was reported by his wife Huzel Abdullaeva to the Crimean Solidarity.

“We learned about the stage from my husband, he himself informed us before leaving. He was taken out of the pre-trial detention center in Novocherkassk on July 2, and on July 3 he was already in Vladimir. On July 15 he arrived in the Ulyanovsk region, in Dimitrovgrad. Upon arrival, they immediately issued a local uniform and sent to quarantine. I haven’t written anything about the conditions of detention in prison yet”,- commented his wife.

We remind you that on March 27, 2019, Russian security forces in the occupied Crimea carried out mass searches in 26 Crimean Tatars’ dwellings. Literature was seized from some activists, which, according to Crimean Solidarity, the security forces planted themselves. In addition to books and brochures, people were confiscated phones, tablets, laptops, passports. The servicemen behaved rudely. It is reported that they used physical force against detainees and entered the houses in shoes. Lawyers who arrived at the site of the searches were not allowed to contact the detainees. According to the results of the searches, 20 people were suspected of involvement in the Hizb ut-Tahrir organization, which is banned in the Russian Federation. On March 28, three more Crimean Tatar activists were detained, in whose dwellings searches were carried out in their absence. On March 27-28, the occupation court arrested all 23 detainees after searches. They chose a preventive measure in the form of detention. Subsequently, all the individuals involved in this so-called case were repeatedly extended the terms of their arrest.
