Ukrainian savagely beaten in Russian-occupied Crimea punished, not his attacker

No criminal proceedings were brought against the man, probably a police officer, who brutally attacked Ihor Movenko over Ukrainian symbols and an ‘Azov Battalion’ sticker on his bike. Only Movenko has faced a court hearing and fine
Why Ukraine acquits 10 times less often than in Stalin’s Soviet Union
04.10.2016
It had seemed like an indictment of Viktor Yanukovych’s presidency when in 2012 the number of acquittals by Ukrainian courts came perilously close to zero. The statistics for 2015 are not that much better, with part of the problem lying in idiotic rules and methods of measuring police and judges’ achievement

New Kremlin ploy for bypassing Minsk agreements rubberstamped by the same pro-Russian ‘observers’
02.10.2016
The self-styled ‘Donetsk and Luhansk people’s republics’ held ‘primaries’ on Oct 2, claiming them to be preparation for the local elections demanded by the Minsk Agreement. The event was effusively praised by at least 33 ‘observers’, some of them already known for their far-right or extreme left views and unwavering pro-Kremlin position
Russia upholds Mejlis ban in a move to all-out war against Crimean Tatars
30.09.2016
Only a miracle remained, and it didn’t happen. Russia has formally banned the Mejlis, or self-governing body of the Crimean Tatars, the main indigenous people of Crimea which Russia invaded and annexed two and a half years ago. An escalation in repression seems inevitable, with a number of Mejlis leaders in immediate danger.

First Russia jails a CrimeanTatar rights activist, then it comes for his children
30.09.2016
Not content with jailing Crimean Tatar rights activist Emir-Huseyn Kuku in occupied Crimea, Russia is now terrorizing his children, using offensively cynical excuses. This is not the first time that the family has been targeted, and 9-year-old Bekir and his 5-year-old sister Safiyeka are terrified
Babyn Yar: "Did the sun really not pale at the sight of that horror? "

Russia can’t wait a day with new repression against Umerov & other Crimean Tatars
29.09.2016
Ilmi Umerov, Deputy Head of the Crimean Tatar Mejlis and recent victim of punitive psychiatry has again been brought before a court in Russian-occupied Crimea, effectively confirming in advance fears that repressive measures will escalate once the Supreme Court rubberstamps Russia’s ban on the Mejlis, or Crimean Tatar self-governing body

28.09.2016

Ukraine’s Migration Service, most incredibly, appears to still be collaborating with the Russian authorities.
Russia brings enforced disappearances to occupied Crimea
28.09.2016
Civic activists held a vigil outside the Russian embassy in Kyiv on Sept 27, demanding to know the whereabouts of 19-year-old Islyam Dzhepparov and his cousin, brazenly abducted exactly two years ago, civic activist Ervin Ibragimov and many others who have disappeared since Russia invaded and annexed Crimea

Russia brings Stalin era denunciations to occupied Crimea
27.09.2016
Political prisoners, punitive psychiatry, censorship and a Stalinist-era culture of denunciations, this is what Russia brought with its invasion and annexation of Crimea. Fear of being reported to the occupation authorities by neighbours or colleagues had long been a reality. Now one Yalta lawyer has been ‘denounced’ by local council members, including somebody he had considered a friend for 20 years

Prosecutor demands harsher sentence for Crimean Tatar political prisoner
26.09.2016
There are absolutely no grounds, but the case against Ruslan Zeytullaev; Ferat Saifullayev; Rustem Vaitov and Nuri Primov now looks bad for the prosecutor, since even the court in Rostov could not ignore the lack of any evidence to back the charges and passed the minimum sentences possible.
