Bekirov even sleeps in a sitting position, as in this way it hurts less

The Crimean Tatar Edem Bekirov, who was detained in occupied territories of Crimea for keeping the ammunition and explosives, is not better after taking insulin, appointed after the medical examination. “Krym.Realii” reports this.

“Today I have visited Edem Bekirov in prison. He constantly complains about his health. He has a constant high pressure and sugar level. This is despite the fact that he gets insulin injects three times a day. Earlier, when he took a pill taken from high sugar level, it helped him - the sugar level was within the normal range”, - Isliam Veliliayev, the lawyer, said.

Besides, after insulin injects he suffers from heart pains and pant. Insulin, as we know, has a harmful effect on the heart.

There are substantiated doubts about whether it was right to appoint Bekirov insulin.

“I will explain the procedure of injecting: he nears the doors and via a small window for taking food he is injected with insulin”, - the lawyer stressed.

The lawyer also said he would write different complaints and reports to the police and prison in order for them to bring Bekirov to the hospital as soon as possible.
