Zevri Abseitov, a talented dentist, once gave up a good work opportunity in Poland because he could not leave his elderly parents. Then Russia annexed Crimea and Abseitov became one of the ever-increasing number of Crimean Tatar and other Ukrainian political prisoners. His 81-year-old mother, Nadzhiye died on May 22, three years after her son was taken from her and from his four children.
