The Bashkir IK-2 administration in Salavat placed the main person involved in the first Sevastopol case, Hizb Ut-Taurir, Ruslan Zeitullaev, who was serving a 15-year term in a schizo. This was announced on his FB page by the lawyer of the political prisoner Emil Kurbedinov.
Zeytullaev was accused of some violation of the regime. Kurbedinov does not have the information about what exactly was charged with Politzek.
The lawyer added that he sent a complaint to the FSIN with a request to transfer Zeitullaev from Russia to a colony in the territory of the annexed Crimea. Meanwhile, the probability that this requirement will be fulfilled is close to zero. Part 4 of Article 73 of the Russian PEC (places of serving imprisonment) directly allows the Central Glavka of the FSIN to send persons convicted on "terrorist" articles of the Criminal Code to any colony in Russia at their discretion. In addition, in the Crimea there are no institutions where the political prisoner could place: the only strict regime colony on the peninsula - IK -1 in Simferopol - is intended for recidivists, while Zeytullaev was not previously convicted.
The arrival of Zeytullaev in IK-2 in Salavat became known on September 8, 2017. This colony has a poor reputation. So, in May 2015, the IK-2 prisoners held protests against bullying by the administration and the “activists” cooperating with it.
At least two more convicts in the case were sent to the torture colonies. Rustem Vaitov is contained in IK-1 in the mound , and Frat Saifullaev in the Kirov IK-17 in Omutninsk . Like Zeytullaev, these political prisoners in their colonies faced the pressure of the FSINESS .
The mockery of IK -5 in the village of Yasny Sovetsky District Mari El, which contains the fourth defendant of the case - Nuri (Yuri) Primov, is not known. However, his rights were violated .
32-year-old Zeytullaev-a worker worker from the village of Orlinin within the annexed Sevastopol. He was arrested on January 23, 2015. According to the plot of the case, which was led by the Crimean Glavk of the FSB, at the end of March 2014, Zeytullaev organized in the villages of Orlin, the rear and assault Balaklava district of Sevastopol, as well as in other parts of the city, the Hizb Ut-Tyrir cell for the creation of the Crimean Vilaifat in Sevastopol as an administrative unit of the World Caliphate. It is claimed that he demanded from Primov, Vaitov and Saifullaev to propagate the ideas "Hizb Ut -Taurir", to recruit new members, and in the future to organize his own units of this structure.
In the investigation, all four political zones refused to testify. Zeytullaev did not testify during the first process in the case, which was held in the North Caucasus District Military Court in Rostov-on-Don in mid-2016.
In the debate of the parties, the prosecutor Gennady Trukhanov requested 17 years of strict regime for Zeytullaev under part 1 of Article 205.5 of the Russian Criminal Code (organization of the activities of a terrorist organization). However, the Judicial College, chaired by Vyacheslav Korsakova on September 7, 2016 , re-qualified Zeytullaev’s charge from part 1 of Article 205.5 to Part 2 (participation in the activities of a terrorist organization) and gave him seven years of general regime. The remaining three political zones, who from the very beginning were charged with part 2 of Article 205.5, received the minimum deadlines, at that time provided for by the Code, five years of general regime.
None of the defendants pleaded guilty. Speaking with the last word, they announced the political motivation of the case.
However, the prosecutor's office appealed the sentence to Zeitullaev. On December 27, 2016, the collegium of the Supreme Court as part of Igor Krupnov, Alexander Zamashnyuk and Sergey Sokkerincanceled the verdict to the main defendant and confirmed the decisions in relation to the other three.
The case of Zeytullaev was repeatedly considered in Skovs since February 2017. In the debate, the same prosecutor Trukhanov again demanded a 17-year period for the accused. However, on April 26, the college, chaired by Anatoly Kolesnik, agreed with the qualifications of the case under Part 1 of Article 205.5, gave the defendant 12 years of a maximum regime , that is, the term below the lower limit.
The prosecutor’s office repeatedly appealed the verdict, and on July 27, 2017, the college of the Armed Forces consisting of Alexander Voronov (chairman), Oleg Derbilov (Judge-Pod folder) and Dmitry Saburov increased the period of up to 15 years . As an additional punishment, Politzeku was appointed a year of restriction of freedom after leaving the colony. This is the minimum term of conclusion and the minimum period of restriction of freedom from those provided by the Code.
“Even if we are all in the camps, the whole world will see and condemn this,” Zeytullaev remarked in the last word on appeal, turning to compatriots - Crimean Tatars. “Stay and defend your rights and freedoms, without violating international law. Those who have temporarily left, return to the Crimea, to the pearl of our ancestors. The fraud is not inherent.”
“If I die in these dungeons, my loved ones will be proud of me,” added Politsyk. “And for the rest I will be an example of honor and courage.”
Since April 2017, Zeytullaev held hunger strikes three times. The requirements of the latter were the admission of the Ukrainian Ombudsman, the Genconsul of Ukraine in Rostov and Russian human rights activists and journalists, as well as his return to Ukraine and the cessation of the persecution of Crimean Tatars.
