The court in Akmescit (Simferopol) made the decision upon the request of Russian security forces, according to a statement by the Crimean Solidarity Platform on Facebook.
“This is a predictable decision of so-called ‘Kyiv District Court of Simferopol’ to extend detention of Nariman Dzhelial, brothers Asan & Aziz Akhtemov until January 23, 2022,” Ukraine’s Deputy Foreign Minister Emine Dzheppar said on Twitter. “Russia must release all illegally detained & convicted citizens of Ukraine in temporarily occupied #Crimea.”.
Russian security forces detained five Crimean Tatar Turks, including Nariman Dzhelial on Sept. 4. She is accused of “sabotage.”
