Additional information:

On March 11, 2020, the apartment where Seytumer Seytumerov, journalist and host of the Crimean Tatar ATR TV channel, lived before he moved to Kyiv was searched. The Federal Security Service officers believe that he was the organizer of a terrorist cell. Still, the journalist himself claims that the charges are far-fetched, because, during the first search in 2017, he was not charged with anything and was able to leave Crimea.
