In the occupied Crimea, on September 14, Russian police officers took into custody and took to an unknown destination the defendant in the "case of Crimean Muslims" Oleksandr Sizikov, who has a group I visual disability.
This was reported by the Crimean Solidarity public movement with reference to lawyer Lilya Hemedzhi.
Since July 2020, during the preliminary and judicial investigation, Oleksandr has been under house arrest at his place of residence in the Bakhchisaray district. In May 2023, a Russian court sentenced the political prisoner to 17 years in prison, and on September 13, the Court of Appeal upheld the verdict.
"I received a call from Oleksandr Sizikov and his mother. I was informed that the Ministry of Internal Affairs officers had arrived to execute the court sentence. When my mother asked to show them the ruling of the Military Court of Appeal in Vlasys with the seal, they said that they did not have such a ruling," said Hemedzhi.
Oleksandr Sizikov is a defendant in the 'fourth Bakhchisarai case ofHizb ut-Tahrir'. He was born on October 12, 1984 in Simferopol. Later he moved to the village of Turgenevka, Bakhchisaray district, where he studied at a local school. In 2002, he entered the Sevastopol National Technical University, Faculty of TAMPT, majoring in Automation and Computer-Integrated Technologies.
In May 2023, the Southern District Military Court in Rostov-on-Don sentenced Oleksandr Sizikov to 17 years in a strict regime colony. On September 13, the Military Court of Appeal in Vlasitsa(Moscow region) upheld his sentence.
Hemedzhi called the actions of the police officers illegal. In addition, they threatened to use force against Sizikov and bring him to justice for "failure to comply with the lawful demands of police officers".
"Everything that is happening now can only be called arbitrariness of the Ministry of Internal Affairs," the lawyer added.
