The head of the Naberezhnye Chelny branch of the All-Tatar Public Center Rafis Kashapov, sentenced to three years for criticizing the annexation of Crimea, was taken from IK-18 under the Ukhta in an unknown direction. This was reported by Anastasia Zotova with reference to the wife of Politsyk Nurziya Kashapova.
On February 7, Kashapov’s lawyers reported that he was transferred to the FSINOSK hospital No. 18 in Ukhta on the territory of IK-18. The politicalese has diagnosed stomach ulcers and reduced pressure.
At the same time, Kashapov was not provided in the colony. In January, at a meeting with lawyer Ruslan Garifullin, Kashapov said: "In the event of my death, to be guilty to consider the FSB officers, the Federal Penitentiary Service of the Republic of Komi, the prosecutor's office."
In December 2014, Kashapov was arrested for the publication on the Internet of three texts and one demotivator with criticism of the annexation of Crimea and Russian aggression in eastern Ukraine. On September 15, 2015, the judge of the Naberezhnye City Court, Dan Shakurov, sentenced the social activist to three years in general regime under part 1 of Article 282 (arousal of hatred or enmity) and part 2 of Article 280.1 of the Criminal Code (public calls for separatism over the Internet). This was the first verdict in the "separatist" article 280.1.
Kashapov himself did not deny the fact of the publication of texts and a demotivator , but he insisted that there was no corpus delicti in these actions. Speaking in his process with the last word, he emphasized that the case was fully fabricated by the FSB .
On November 13, the Supreme Court of Tataria upheld Shakurov’s decision in force , having removed only an additional punishment from the Police - a two -year ban on using social networks on leaving the colony.
