The intercessors write to the criminals

The European Union urged to ensure free access to Crimea to international observers for the situation in the field of human rights. This is stated in a statement by the press secretary of the European Foreign Policy Service, published on the EEAS website.

"Vladimir Balukh, who opposed the illegal annexation of Crimea by the Russian Federation, was sentenced to three years and seven months of a colony -settlement by the court on the peninsula, the jurisdiction of the EU does not recognize," the document says. "In addition, on November 23 in Simferopol, the Crimean Tatar Deghermanji was detained for dubious accusations. The critical state of his health is taken into account, it is important that he is immediately provided with access to the necessary medical care. ”

In this regard, the EEAS representative emphasized that “full, free and unhindered access” to the Crimea should be provided to international observers of human rights.

"The European Union expects that all illegally detained citizens of Ukraine on the illegally annexed Crimean peninsula and in Russia will be released as quickly as possible," the EU is still committed to its policy of non -recognition of the illegal annexation of Crimea and Sevastopol. "

The 57-year-old Degermendzhi was arrested in the fabricated case of extortion ("Vedzhe Kashka"). It has a disability of group III in connection with a severe form of bronchial asthma. In the Simferopol SIZO-1, Politzek did not receive adequate treatment for several weeks. As a result, on the night of December 14 last year, he was hospitalized in intensive care . The whole first day of stay in the hospital, the political zyta remained unconscious; Despite this, the handcuffs of the FSINITS did not remove him from him. On December 20, Degermendzhi was discharged from the intensive care unit to the general chamber of the pulmonological department. At the same time, the first time due to the lack of places in the wards the patient was lying on a bed in the corridor. On January 2, the Politzeck was returned to the pre -trial detention center.

On January 12, the Kiev District Court of Simferopol, controlled by Russia, extended for two months the arrest of Degermmenji and other defendants in the case, the Crimean Tatar activists of Asan Chapukh, Kazim Ametov and Ruslan Trubach.

On Tuesday, Judge of the Razdolnensky District Court, Elena Tedeeeva, sentenced the Baluha to 3 years 7 months of a penal colony with a fine of 10 thousand rubles in the fabricated case of storage of cartridges and TNT checkers. The 46-year-old Baluh, a farmer from the village of Serebryanka of the Razdolnensky district, was announced guilty under Part 1 of Article 222 (illegal circulation of ammunition) and part 1 of Article 222.1 of the Russian Criminal Code (illegal explosive circulation). By the time before the sentence entered into force, Tedeev tightened the activist a preventive measure, replacing him with house arrest with the detention center in jail. Baluha was taken into custody in the courtroom.

After the verdict was announced, the political prisoner said: “You will still not achieve the main goal that you pursued all the way - to intimidate me personally and in my face of all people, and even those who have already begun to translate in relation to the state that occupied the Crimea four years ago. People already see what kind of state it is, and the discontent of people is more and more again. And that you will never intimidate us here, it is completing the presence here. People who are not afraid of you either. "
