Circassians in the Diaspora as well as in the Motherland sympathize with the young Circassian، Martin Kocheseko, who was wrongly and falsely accused of trumped-up fabricated charges and accusations, which Martin is far from committing.
In June 2019, drugs were planted in Martin’s possessions and his car while he was on his way back home، after being stopped by the police and Drug Enforcement Administration agents, who were ready to fabricate the accusations and press charges to be arbitrarily arrested and prosecuted; however, later on, he was placed under house arrest.
This is happening at the Circassian homeland with Circassian activists who dare to criticize the injustice that anyone of them could be exposed to.
It appears that the continuous work of the activist Martin through the Khabze Organization and the various services he performs towards his community and people in Kabardino-Balkaria, due to his call and support for the freedom and rights of his nation. Obviously, this has haunted some parties that do not want citizens to care about their rights according to the laws and rules in force and the state constitution.
He worked along with his young colleagues with researchers and specialists in culture, research and study centers, and participated with his fellows in meaningful seminars and lectures with academicians and human rights activists, some of which were shown on the Internet. After his trial was postponed several times, the next date was set to the twenty-second of this month, September 2020.
The Circassians in diaspora and alienation in all places of their whereabouts, who follow what is going on, to the voices of their brothers in Kabardino-Balkaria to demand the dropping of the false charges against Martin and for freedom, justice and fairness for him and all innocent people like him.
