Aliaksandr Kruty states that his daughter still hasn't received compensation
Minsk citizen
Aliaksandr Kruty, who is kept in the pre-trial prison in Valadarski Street, awaiting the direction
for forced psychiatric treatment, imposed by a court verdict, sent a letter to
the Homel-based activist of the coalition “Our Alternative” Kanstantsin
Zhukouski.
Bear in mind that the ruling for the direction of Aliaksandr Kruty to the
psychiatric hospital was issued by court in December 2011. His daughter Inesa
Krutaya, disagrees with the verdict and is convinced that the persecution of
her father and considers it as revenge of the authorities for his active
participation in the trial of the criminal case concerning the terrorist act in
the Minsk metro
(Mr. Kruty represented her interests at it). During the trial, Aliaksandr Kruty
asked “inconvenient questions” to the court and proposed to abolish the death
penalty.
In his letter, dated 29 January 2012, he writes almost nothing about himself,
but expresses his concern with his daughter's state of health. According to
him, it quickly deteriorates. There is a metallic splinter in her pupil and she
will need money if a surgical operation is necessary. They live on one pension
together with her disabled mother. Before the imprisonment, Mr. Kruty took care
of the women, but now they are left alone.
Mr. Kruty associates the deterioration of the daughter's health with the trauma
of the brain she received during the blast in the metro. He says that the
medics didn't conduct a complete examination of the brain. Inessa didn't
receive a financial compensation as a victim of the terrorist act. She wasn't
found invalid and therefore receives no social pension. “As far as I know,
Inesa received nothing out of the milliards of rubles raised by the people to
support the victims. It's great that there are people who help her, she
wouldn't cope with it all on her own. Her addresses to all state bodies are
ignored. And this is by far incomplete list of our problems,” states Aliaksandr
Kruty.
Homel-based activists decided to start collecting money to support the victim
of the terrorist act, and ask all concerned people to join this initiative.
