 The Appeal to Terry Davis and Nicolas Sarkozi
SIA CHECHENPRESS, 11 September 2007
Dear Mr. Terry Davis and Mr. Sarkozi,
Allow us to warn you that the lack of your timely reaction may lead to the death of Said-Emin Ibragimov, a lawyer and human rights activist. His eighth hunger-strike is going on for the ninth day now. Moreover, as his larynx is burned by earlier hunger-strikes, he cannot drink any water as well. All Ibragimov’s demands are in full accordance with the Conventions and Resolutions, which must be observed by the Council of Europe which adapted and signed them.
The human rights activist is on a hunger strike in a country led by a progressive politician, who has rightly called the tragedy of the Chechen nation a genocide. We are confident that the Council of Europe, as well as all the honest people, quite understand and appreciate what is happening in Chechnya.
We ask you for consistence and compassion, and we expect them from you.
The Committee for the Salvation of Said-Emin Ibragimov, lawyer and human rights activist (France, Chechenia, Netherlands, UK, Austria, Germany, Belgium, Spain, Poland, Bulgaria, Sweden, Norway, Dagestan, Azerbaijan, Turkey, Tartarstan, Lithuania, Estonia, Ukraine, USA, Russia and other countries)
Dear Mr. Sarkozi,
Said-Emin Ibragimov, a lawyer and human rights activist, is dying trying to make the facts of genocide and occupation recognized by the Council of Europe, as it must be according to the Conventions and Resolutions which constitute international law. This is happening is France, whose president himself has called the events n Chechnya genocide.
We regret to inform you that there is still no official recognition of the fact that Chechnya is suffering occupation and genocide from the organization eligible to make it.
We appeal for your support and ask you to help.
The Committee for the Salvation of Said-Emin Ibragimov, lawyer and human rights activist (France, Chechenia, Netherlands, UK, Austria, Germany, Belgium, Spain, Poland, Bulgaria, Sweden, Norway, Dagestan, Azerbaijan, Turkey, Tartarstan, Lithuania, Estonia, Ukraine, USA, Russia and other countries)
