The Mission condemns another crime of the occupiers against a citizen of Ukraine, activist, volunteer, military pensioner, former commander of the Ukrainian Navy reconnaissance ship Slavutych.<\/p>\n
On July 22, Russian security forces abducted Mr. Oleksiy right on the street of Henichesk, beat him, tied him up, pushed him into a minibus and took him to his house for a search. All the time, they did not remove the bag from the soldier’s head and did not allow him to move, so he does not know whether the occupiers seized any of his property.<\/p>\n
After the illegal search, Oleksiy was interrogated in the building of the vocational school No. 17, where the Russian Guard unit is now based. There, the detainee was beaten and tortured with electric shocks twice a day for two hours until July 25. The disappearance of the former captain of the Slavutych ship was reported by his son Artem Kiselyov.<\/p>\n
On July 27, Oleksiy was taken to the administrative border with the occupied Crimea and handed over to FSB officers, who took the Ukrainian military to Simferopol. He was interrogated for two more days, beaten on the head and stunned with a stun gun – “forced to confess to terrorism and alleged involvement in the Crimean Tatar volunteer battalion named after Nariman Chelebidzhikhan and a special group led by the President’s representative in Crimea in 2010, Sergei Kunitsyn”, to tell about the location of weapons and personnel of the Genichesk terrorist defense. All this time, the illegally imprisoned man’s hands were tied and his head was wrapped in a T-shirt.<\/p>\n
On July 29, 2022, the occupiers applied to the occupation Kyiv District Court of Simferopol with a petition to arrest Alexei – on the same day, the occupation judge Valentina Kamynina arrested Kiselyov for two months.<\/p>\n
The Mission demands from the Russian Federation to immediately cancel the illegal verdict, stop torture and illegal arrests of Ukrainian citizens.<\/p>\n
We draw the attention of the law enforcement agencies of Ukraine and the Prosecutor’s Office of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the city of Sevastopol to another violation of the rights and freedoms of a Ukrainian citizen.<\/p>\n
We call on the international community to respond to another unprecedented injustice of the occupation administrations controlled by the Russian Federation and to increase pressure on the aggressor country.<\/p>\n
Political persecution, repressions and illegal sentences in the temporarily occupied territory of Crimea must stop immediately, and all perpetrators must be held accountable for their crimes, which is impossible without the complete de-occupation of Crimea.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","publication-type":[54],"class_list":["post-38960","press-center","type-press-center","status-publish","hentry","publication-type-statements"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
