The officers did whatever they could think of, hitting him in the lower back, on the kidneys, on the back. They put white paper on my son's back, which meant that he had to be hit particularly hard. They hit his legs, his thighs, and below.
At the moment, Timur is still in pre-trial detention.
My name is Saniya #Kleimenova, I live in Semey and I am Timur Irzhanuly's mother, born in 1989.
