Alsou Kurmasheva, a journalist of the Tatar-Bashkort service of Radio Liberty  has been in custody for more than 100 days

More than 3 months, and there is no end in sight. She was detained because she was not afraid to write what everyone was thinking. She expressed the thoughts of all of us. She was locked in custody not only to shut up her alone, but to shut up all of us. Silence entire nations.

And so far the nations are silent. They tried to fight off Alsynov, but it did not work out. And there was no attempt to rescue Kurmasheva. Although they should stand up for their people. Defend everyone.

Even if not only a journalist, but also an unknown person is arrested for criticizing the occupation authorities, we all must protect this person from punitive forces. So far, it is on the contrary – loners protect entire nations, and Moscow is gradually snatching them out and eliminating them in various ways so that they do not interfere. But one day these loners will end. This is  exactly what Moscow is waiting for.

The Kirovsky District Court of Ufa sent five more people under arrest until March 17: Sania Uzyanbaeva, Airat Akhmetov, Danis Uzyanbaev, Zakir Akhmedin, Munir Isyangildin.

Thus, the number of detainees is already more than 2 dozen.
