As reported by Inver Tlij, a lawyer of the Bar of the Republic of Adygea, a complaint has been lodged on the decision of the Lenin District Court of Krasnodar to attract Asker Sokht, the chairman of the Krasnodar organization "Adyge-Khase", to administrative responsibility and his detention.
Let us remind you that on February 15 the above court ruled to arrest Asker Sokht for eight days on charges of disobeying a lawful demand of a representative of power.
According to Inver Tlij, in his complaint he asks the higher instance to stop the proceedings against Asker Sokht.
