In Crimea, 20 people were “packed” in the Hizb case: Ukraine is already hysterical in the Council of Europe
20 people were detained today as a result of searches that took place this morning in connection with the case of participation in the Islamist terrorist organization Hizb-ut-Tahrir, banned in the Russian Federation.
“20 people in total. They are accused of participating in a terrorist organization,” Anton Naumlyuk, a correspondent for the liberal Novaya Gazeta, who provides information support to the detainees, said in his blog.
Now the case of one of the detainees is being considered in the Kiev District Court of Simferopol.
“A large number of sympathizers gathered at the court... At the same time, riot police arrived. Those present were told that they must disperse, citing the legislation on holding rallies. Detentions are possible,” Naumlyuk said.
Representative of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry Dmitry Kuleba has already stated that Ukraine considers the special operation of Russian security forces against Islamists in Crimea to be “political repression.”
I just informed the Secretary General and the ambassadors of the member states of the Council of Europe about another systematic attack by the Russian occupiers on the Crimean Tatars in Crimea... We expect not only another expression of concern, but concrete steps to protect the rights of the Crimean Tatars.
If these steps are at least 50% as energetic as the attempts of some influential forces in the Council of Europe to return Russia to PACE, giving it an indulgence for aggression against Ukraine, the rights of people in the occupied zone will be protected.
Otherwise, this is how it works out for us: if we need to help Russia, then meetings are convened, documents are prepared, lawyers substantiate their positions, and statements are made about the need for constructiveness.
And when it is necessary to protect the victims of Russian occupation, now the maximum that can be squeezed out of the Council of Europe is a statement of concern,” Kuleba does not hide his dissatisfaction.
