Activist Lyudmila Borzilo faces pressure from law enforcers
Lyudmila Borzilo, an activist from the Rostov Region, was taken to a hospital by order of an investigator. In the hospital, the activist was subjected to pressure with an attempt to convince her to agree to undergo tests for a psychiatric examination.
The “Caucasian Knot” has reported that Lyudmila Borzilo, a member of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation (CPRF) from the Rostov Region, complained that the law enforcement bodies had groundlessly instituted a criminal case against her and demanded from her to undergo a psychiatric examination. The activist also claimed that officials were trying to place her children in an orphanage for her active civic position. On March 3, a court placed Lyudmila Borzilo under house arrest.
Lyudmila Borzilo is accused of disclosing the secret of adoption.
Tatiana Borzilo, a 20-year-old daughter of Lyudmila Borzilo, reported that her mother was requested to sign a “consent to medical intervention,” but the activist refused to sign the document without her lawyer. As a result, two hours later, an officer of the Russian Federal Penitentiary Service (known as FSIN) brought her mother home, “exhausted and upset.”
In Russia, medical tests can be taken exclusively with a patient’s will, emphasizes Sergey Gromov, a lawyer of the mother of many children.
