Ex-deputy director general of ATR Crimean Tatar channel Lilia Budzhurova said that former channel's director general Elzara Isliamova was visited with a search.

"Today, nearly at 7 o'clock, people searched Elzara Isliamova," Budzhurova wrote on Facebook on Wednesday.

On April 1, the one only in the world Crimean Tatar Channel ATR stopped broadcasting in Crimea, since Russia Federal Service for Supervision in the Sphere of Telecom, Information Technologies and Mass Communications refused to register the channel as it needed under the Russian legislation.

In June, ATR resumed broadcasting from Kyiv after over 2.5-month stop.
