The health of Politzeck Velitov seriously worsened

The health of the former Imam of the Moscow Mosque "Yardy" Mahmud Velitov, sentenced to three years in a general regime in a fabricated case on the justification of terrorism, seriously worsened. On Friday, the lawyer of Politzek Dagir Khasavov wrote on his FB page.

On November 22, the lawyer reported that the 66 -year -old Velitov - a disabled person of the group II, who had previously suffered a heart attack and a stroke, was placed at the curtain of his colony - IK -10 in Astrakhan. A few days later, on the 27th, the Politzeck was transferred to the regional FSINSK hospital at the IK-2 strict regime, also located in the regional center.

Despite the translation, Khasavov wrote, Velitova’s condition continues to deteriorate. New diseases were added to the previous diseases; Politzke is moving with difficulty, and he came to a meeting with a lawyer on Friday with a cane, which one of the prisoners lent him. Meanwhile, Velitova does not receive the necessary medical care in the hospital with IK-2.

In mid-July, when the political prisoner was still kept in the metropolitan pre-trial detention center-1 "sailor silence", it was reported that he was urgently hospitalized in the medical part of the insulator with pain in the heart and numbness of the leg. Later it turned out that Imam also suffers from stones in both kidneys.

After the delivery of Velitov to the Astrakhan IK-10, the FSINITS freed him from some duties of the prisoner for health reasons.

The reason for the persecution of Velitov was Khutba (Friday sermon), read by him in his mosque on September 23, 2013 in memory of the Dagestan cleric in Abdullah Gappaev, who was killed in Kizlyar a week earlier, on the 16th. As stated in the case, Gappaev was in the Hizb Ut-Tahrir, and therefore Velitov, with his performance, sought "the formation of a positive image of an extremist organization."

At the same time, Khasavov insisted that Imam did not know about Gappev’s membership in Hizb Ut-Tahrir, and in addition, the deceased belonging to this party is not confirmed by anything but information on her website.

On July 11, 2016, Velitov was detained by TSPE operatives and managed by deception in the presence of an appointed lawyer. The next day, he was sent under house arrest, from which he was released on a recognizance of a loss on February 22, 2017, at the end of the investigation. The case was conducted by the senior investigator of the Butyrsky intercourse of the capital's head of the TFR Nikita Ratnikov. Initially, it was qualified under part 2 of Article 205.2 of the Criminal Code (public justification of terrorism using the media); Later, the prosecution was softened by imputing the clergy of part 1 of the same article (without the qualifying attribute "use of the media").

Velitov’s process was held in April of this year in the Moscow District Military Court. Imam at the hearing completely rejected guilt. On April 28, after the sentence is announced,the cleric was taken into custody in the courtroom . On August 1, the College for the Affairs of the Supreme Court of the Supreme Court as part of Alexander Voronov, Oleg Derbilov and Alexander Zamashnyuk confirmed the verdict of Politzeku .
