A new case is opened against Azat
Azat Miftakhov is on the list of terrorists and extremists. A new case will be opened against him. The answer to the journalists’ question sent to Rosfinmonitoring shows that the case against Azat was opened under Article 205.2 (“Public calls to carry out terrorist activities, public justification of terrorism or propaganda of terrorism”). It is highly likely that he will not be able to leave prison the day of his release.
In addition, Azat is subject to a stricter detention regime due to his alleged violations.
Azat is due to be released on 4 September. The fact that the Russian repressive apparatus is increasing the pressure on him is a reason to say even louder: “Freedom for Azat Miftakhov!
Actions in support of the political prisoner will be held in many cities on 2 September.
