After filing lawsuits, the Crimean Tatar political prisoner was transferred to a colony closer to home

Arsen Abhairov, a Crimean Tatar, was transferred from IK-8 Ulan-Ude (Buryatia) to IK-3 Chuvashia. The first colony was located 7 thousand km from home, the second - 2 thousand.

At first, the Zamoskvoretsky district court of Moscow declared the FSIN's refusal to transfer a prisoner close to the family illegal. Then the Krasnogvardei District Court of Crimea considered ignoring Abhairov's request "unmotivated". Earlier, Azize Abhairova's wife reported that because of the distance, the family cannot use either short-term or long-term dates.

Arsen also complained about toothache and lack of qualified medical care. In addition, after staging, his varicose veins worsened.

In 2020, the Southern Military Court sentenced businessman Arsen Abhairov to 13 years in prison. He was accused of belonging to the Hizb-ut Tahrir Islamic party banned in Russia. In many countries of the world, the organization operates without restrictions at the level of national legislation.
