It is possibly deliberate policy that Russia’s criminal charges against civic journalist Iryna Danilovych were so evidently fabricated, as a lesson to others of what they too can expect in revenge for civic courage and speaking the truth
From Human Rights in Ukraine by Halya Coynash: “The pain will pass when you go deaf”. This was the only reaction that Ukrainian political prisoner Iryna Danilovich received when she informed the prison staff in Russia of the excruciating and escalating pain she was suffering. The prison staff had taken away the medication which her parents had obtained for her back in occupied Crimea and are refusing to provide the treatment she evidently requires. Such appalling treatment is yet further confirmation that Russia’s persecution of the 43-year-old nurse, human rights activist and civic journalist was always aimed at revenge for Iryna’s firm civic position and at silencing those who report violations of medical and other rights in occupied Crimea.
