The prison administration does not consider the Baluha to be starving

The SIZO-1 administration in Simferopol does not consider the Crimean political prisoner Vladimir Balukh to be starving, Olga Skripnik, head of the Crimean human rights group, told Crimea. Realiyam. According to her, the Baluha stopped visiting a prison doctor, no documentation of a hunger strike is underway.

Meanwhile, the site of the Ukrainian Ombudsman Lyudmila Denisova quotes the letter of her Russian colleague Tatyana Moskalkova about visiting the Simferopol pre -trial detention center on May 19. Regarding the Baluha, the paper says: "Claims to the conditions of detention, complaints about a humiliating or cruel attitude during my visit to the convicts, he did."

According to Moskalkova, there were no bodily injuries at Politzek and signs of the application of psychological pressure for the entire prison, including during departments to the Razdolnensky IVS to the courts, and the statements and complaints through the administration of the pre -trial detention center were not sent by a scatter.

Politsyk, writes Moskalkov, is contained in a double chamber with an area of ​​10.5 square meters; It has a TV and a tank with drinking water. Together with the Balukh there is another prisoner. The Politsyk’s statement about the “privacy” of the bathroom, according to the Russian Ombudsman, “was promptly satisfied with the employees of the institution.”

However, the Crimean human rights group reported that on June 10, when the Baluha was returned to the pre -trial detention center from the Razdolnensky IVS, the TV - the only source of information - was no longer in his cell. It is also reported that now the Politzek is contained in the cell one.

In addition, the human rights activists said, after the return of the red pre -trial detention center returned for about two hours, they placed in a “pencil” (or “glass”) - a narrow camera in which you can only stand or sit. Due to the stuffiness in this chamber, the political and heart pain began at the political prisoner.

Also, Balukh, without explanation, took a fingerprint fingerprint.

On Tuesday, "Crimea. Realities" was reported with reference to the deputy chairman of the Medzhlis of the Crimean Tatar people Akhtem Chiygoz, responsible for interacting with the families of the Crimean Political Zyks, which the other day in the Baluha chamber was held by the next night search, which was personally conducted by the head of the DISO, Colonel of the Internal Service Sergey Berezhnoy.

Baluh for almost three months, from March 19, continues the hunger strike against an unlawful sentence in the case of storage of ammunition. On the 25th day of the action, on April 12, at the insistence of his public defender - the Archbishop of the Simferopol and Crimean Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Kyiv Patriarchate Clement (Little) - Balukh softened the hunger strike. If earlier Politzek used only water and tea, then after a conversation with Clement, he began to drink two glasses of oatmeal jelly every day, eat 50-70 grams of crackers from black bread, and add honey to tea.

Such a decision, Baluh explained, was accepted, "in order to exclude the likelihood of forcibly feeding and the use of medical means of maintaining life, as well as not to cause irreparable grief to their relatives."

“At some point, the colony administration found out about Kisel and decided to remove it from a formal hunger strike,” the Skripnik said. “But Vladimir continues his protest, he lost 30 kg of weight.”

Earlier, the civil wife of Baluha Natalya pointed out that her husband has a sore liver and keep a hunger strike for him, in principle, it is unacceptable.

On June 5, Baluh conveyed from the pre -trial detention center the appeal to President Petro Poroshenko, in which he urged to combine the efforts of the state and society for the "Holy struggle against the Muscovite occupiers." The Balukh letter was read at the meeting of Poroshenko with relatives of the Ukrainian prisoners of the Kremlin.

On April 2, in the Razdolnensky District Court of Crimea, hearings began on the merits of the third case of Balukh about the attack on the head of the IVS Valery Tkachenko allegedly committed by him. Witnesses of the prosecution differ in the testimony.

The 47-year-old Baluh, a farmer from the village of Serebryanka of the Razdolnensky district, was charged with part 2 of Article 321 of the Russian Criminal Code (the application of non-hazardous violence to an employee of the place of imprisonment in connection with his official activities), which provides for up to five years of the colony. According to the plot of the case, on August 11, 2017, during the morning inspection of the Razdolnensky IVS cameras, where the Politzeck was delivered from a pre -trial detention center to participate in the court in the second case, Baluh in the corridor inflicted a blow to the head of the insulator with his elbow in the stomach, after which he went into the cell, took the detergent bottle and hit the police officer.

In fact, Tkachenko himself beat the political prisoner, and also insulted him on a national basis and scolded him with obscenities, and all this was recorded by a video surveillance camera. It is also known that the head of the IVS Hamil Politzeku previously. The case against the Balukh was fabricated after his defense applied to the police with a statement to the head of the IVS.

In December 2013, in the first weeks of the Revolution of Dignity, Baluh hung a red-black flag of the Ukrainian rebel army over his house in Serebryanka. After some time at night, this flag was secretly disrupted, and the farmer replaced it with the national flag of Ukraine. After Russian citizenship after the annexation of Crimea, the activist did not apply.

In the first case, Baluh was convicted in 2016. He received 320 hours of compulsory work under article 319 of the Russian Criminal Code (insulting a representative of the authorities). As a victim, Lieutenant Evgeny Baranov, who participated in a search in the activist’s house in November 2015, appeared as a victim of the CPE.

The second case of the Baluha was fabricated after he attached a tablet on his house with the inscription "Wulitz heroes of heaven, 18". The activist was placed in a pre -trial detention center, where he spent almost a year before transferring under house arrest and where a month and a half later was sent again after the sentence. Baluhu was charged with part 1 of article 222 (illegal circulation of ammunition) and part 1 of Article 222.1 of the Russian Criminal Code (illegal turnover of explosives), throwing cartridges and TNT checkers during the next search. This year, the activist was condemned by 3 years 5 months of a colony-settlement .
