The Leninsky District Court of Izhevsk sentenced five defendants in a criminal case of protests in Bashkortostan by a period of 4.5 to 5.5 years of a general regime colony. This is reported by the lawyer of one of the defendants.

Among the convicts are the InSaf Islamov and Sagit Yulmukhametov. Their and two more people were sentenced to 4 years and 6 months of a colony of general regime. Another defendant was appointed 5 years and 6 months of the colony. Given the time spent in jail, they have already left for 2.5 years from these terms.

All five found guilty under the article on participation in the riots (part 2 of article 212 of the Criminal Code). In addition, four of them were found guilty under an article on the use of violence to police officers (part 1 of article 318 of the Criminal Code). The convicted person, who was appointed 5.5 years of the colony, was charged with the use of violence to the police, dangerous to health (part 2 of article 318 of the Criminal Code).

Inxaph Islamov was detained in apatites a few weeks after mass protests in Bashkortostan. He was sent to a pre -trial detention center. After some time, the man was transported from the Murmansk region, where he worked and lived, in the pre -trial detention center of Ufa. After that, four more people were taken to Izhevsk to consider their case on the merits.

  • In January 2024, the Bashkir activist and the ex-leader of the Bashkort movement Fail Alsynov were sentenced to four years in the colony due to a speech at the popular gathering. Before the verdict and on the day of his announcement, three major shares were held in support of Alsynov: January 15 and 17 - in Baymak , January 19 in Ufa .
  • After these shares, mass detentions began. First, in administrative cases, and then the security forces opened a criminal case of riots. More than 80 people became defendants in this case. Some of them reported violence. One of the defendants Rifat Dautov died after the detention - his family was not called the cause of the death of a man. Another member of the gathering Minniyar Baiguskarov committed suicide. OVD-info protects 20 defendants in the case and collects donations for them.
