I'm an Amnesty International member from the U.S., working on Russia/Chechnya. I am so disappointed by recent decision of the European Court on Human Rights to deport to Russia two Chechen asylum seekers, who were detained in Slovakia, Ali Ibragimov and Anzor Chentiev. So far, the European Court on Human Rights in Strasbourg remained one of few European organizations who preserved their principles of fairness and justice. It acknowledged that in Chechnya, grave violations of human rights still are everyday reality. What happened now? Did Russia demonstrated any evidence that could convince the respected court in change policies towards Chechens in the Russian Federation? No, there are no any evidence of such turn. I urge you to URGENTLY appeal the decision on Ibragimov and Chentilov extradition. It is even more dangerous decision because it can become precedent for more and more human tragedies.
Sincerely, Nadezhda Banchik
