Yesterday, the Mission’s team met with the family of political prisoner Appaz Kurtamet, who was illegally sentenced by the occupiers to 7 years in prison, with the first year in jail and the rest of the term in a strict regime colony. The occupation forces completely groundlessly accused the young man of allegedly “financing an armed group banned in Russia.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The political prisoner’s mother, Aishe Kurtamet, spoke about Appaz’s health condition and noted that he was not provided with proper medical care in prison. Now, the guy is in a Russian prison in the Russian city of Vladimir, but the occupiers are preparing further illegal transfer of the political prisoner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n“We are trying to speak about political prisoners everywhere and raise the issue of releasing our citizens at all possible platforms. Appaz is the youngest of the political prisoners held by Russia, but he demonstrates resistance despite the pressure of the occupiers. And the release of Nariman Dzhelyal and Leniie Umerova is a sign that we will definitely release all citizens of Ukraine,” the Permanent Representative noted.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Tamila Tasheva thanked Appaz’s family for their struggle, strength, and coverage of the political prisoner’s story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During the meeting, it was also emphasized that many people are actively writing letters to Appaz as part of the Letters to a Free Crimea initiative, which will be delivered to the political prisoner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
