Zhirinovsky replied to a call to help a pro-Russian activist arrested in Kazakhstan
LDPR leader Vladimir Zhirinovsky personally responded to a request from St. Petersburg activist Victoria Prokhorova, who was concerned about the fate of a Russophile from Kazakhstan Ermek Taychibekova.
The social activist asked the LDPR leader to assist in granting Taichibekov, who was sentenced to seven years of strict regime, citizenship and political asylum in Russia.
As a PolitNavigator correspondent reports, Zhirinovsky, judging by the signature and text of the letter, personally responded to Prokhorova’s request.
“I received a letter from you, thank you,” the LDPR leader wrote in response. “In accordance with Article 16 of the Federal Law “On Citizenship of the Russian Federation,” applications for issuing a notification of the possibility of admission to citizenship of the Russian Federation, admission to citizenship of the Russian Federation and on restoration of citizenship of the Russian Federation, filed by persons who have an unexpunged or outstanding conviction for committing intentional crimes on the territory of the Russian Federation or abroad, recognized as such in accordance with the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. I wish you success and good health!”
Zhirinovsky did not express any desire to participate in the fate of the Kazakh Russophile and prisoner of conscience.
According to the latest data, Ermek Taychibekov, who suffered an unfair sentence and a serious illness within the pre-trial detention center (according to his personal feelings, contrary to the conclusions of prison doctors, presumably coronavirus), is preparing to be transferred to a colony, while the punitive system of Kazakhstan intends to pin new charges on him for insulting a judge and President of Kazakhstan.
Let us recall that earlier Ermek’s brother Marlene, in an “open appeal-petition to the Russian Federation” asked Moscow to provide the political prisoner with political asylum.
Thank you!
