Kuban resident is separated from his wife and children for about two years because of migration service

In early 2015, Sudaba Abdullaeva, an Azerbaijani citizen, with her two young daughters, who have Russian citizenship, went home, after which she could not get back to the Krasnodar Territory to join her husband, because of the ban to enter Russia. Her husband's representative has turned to the Migration Service asking to explain the reason for the ban, in which the children became hostages of the situation.

Fariz Medjidov, a resident of the Krasnodar Territory, told the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent that in May 2015, at the border with North Ossetia, employees of the Migration Service gave his wife a notification on the ban to enter the territory of the Russian Federation. In this regard, she and her children are still in Azerbaijan.

The situation is aggravated by the disease of their younger daughter, who urgently needs medical care, said Medjidov. Besides, as he added, the two daughters are missing a Russian school for the second year.

Medjidov works as an unskilled worker in Krasnodar and cannot afford to pay the lawyers' services and travel to Azerbaijan.

The Migration Service has actually broken family relations, which violates the minors' rights, envisioned by international legal instruments, said Evgeny Pilipenko, the head of a law firm.

He believes that the outcome of the situation is possible through the participation of the Children's Ombudsperson under the Russian President.
