In the draft resolution, after paragraph 2, insert the following paragraph:
"The Assembly is also deeply concerned by cases in certain member States in which national judiciaries are used to silence political opponents and to repress those who disagree with government policies. One of the most notorious examples is the mass political persecution in the annexed Crimea by the Russian Federation. The latest case concerns Akhtem Chiygoz, a member of Mejlis of the Crimean Tatar People, who was sentenced to eight years in a penal colony. He was found guilty of having organised "mass disturbances" linked to clashes between pro-Ukrainian and pro-Russian supporters that led to the death of two people on 26 February 2014."
