In the city of Bakhchisarai, Russian security forces took 74-year-old historian Enver Seitmemetov from his home and drew up an administrative report against him.
This was reported by Krym.Realii.
About ten security forces arrived at the historian's house. They read him the resolution, and then took him to Simferopol.
According to the Crimean Solidarity, the administrative protocol against the elder is being drawn up by employees of the Center for Countering Extremism, which indicates the politically motivated nature of the persecution. After the protocol is drawn up, he is to be taken to the Kyiv District Court of Simferopol for a hearing.
The Chairman of the Mejlis of the Crimean Tatar people Refat Chubarov stressed that the intensification of repressions in the temporarily occupied Crimea, which are directed against representatives of the indigenous people, is a sign that Russians are preparing to escalate their foreign policy.
Earlier, Intent wrote that Crimean Tatar activist and former political prisoner Edem Bekirov died in a hospital in Istanbul after a long illness.
Edem Bekirov was one of the Kremlin prisoners released in the first major exchange between Ukraine and Russia in 2019. His return home was a great victory, but his health condition remained serious as a result of his imprisonment and inadequate conditions in Crimea. Despite extensive treatment in Ukraine and abroad, the disease unfortunately took his life.
Also, it became known that as of May last year, the occupiers illegally imprisoned 218 people in Crimea, including 133 Crimean Tatars. Of the total number, 40 were arrested (including 29 Crimean Tatars), 150 were imprisoned (including 98 Crimean Tatars), and 28 were without status (including 6 Crimean Tatars).
