Jailed for refusing to bear false testimony against Crimean Tatar leader
26.10.2016
Ali Asanov and Mustafa Degermendzhy are paying a high price in Russian-occupied Crimea for their commitment to Ukraine’s territorial integrity, and for their own personal integrity. Both men are charged over a pre-annexation demonstration that Russia can have no jurisdiction over, and are almost certainly being held in detention as revenge for their refusal to give false testimony against the third political prisoner, Crimean Tatar leader Akhtem Chiygoz

26.10.2016

Russias new offensive against civil society has grave implications for Ukrainian political prisoners
24.10.2016

Tortured & Almost Certainly Innocent Ukrainian Life Prisoner Dies Without Justice
21.10.2016
Oleksandr Rafalsky has died in a Ukrainian prison, let down to the end by Ukraine’s justice system and by the leaders who came to power following Euromaidan. He had spent 15 years in prison despite the lack of any evidence or motive to justify his life sentence and serious grounds for believing that any confessions in the case had been extracted through torture.
