Crimean political prisoners are redeployed into a special unit under a special control – lawyer

Emir-Usein Kuku, Vadim Syruk and Refat Alimov were registered as «dangerous persons under investigation», brought in special charge and redeployed into the special unit of Simferopol pretrial detention centre.

It was informed by the lawyer Alexandr Popkov on his page in Facebook.

To recall some facts, on February, 11-12 in Crimea there had been passed streams of house-checks in Crimean Tatars’ houses aimed to discredit those men as «terrorists». 14 people were detained and 4 of them − Emir-Usein Kuku, Enver Bekirov, Vadim Syruk and Muslim Aliev – were arrested. Their participation in the forbidden organization Hizb ut-Tahrir in Russia called the main cause of arrest. On April 18, 2016 in Krasnokamenka village Yalta region there were passed the searches, afterwards Refat Alimov was arrested.
