==Biography== |
|||
Musa was born on 20 February 1931 in Uzundza, [[Bakhchesaray]] region, Crimea to a shepherd family. He had five brothers and two sisters. In 1944 Joseph Stalin accused the Crimean Tatars of collaborating with the Nazis. Like thousands of other Crimean Tatars, Musa's family was driven out of its home, they were loaded onto a cattle wagon and deported to Uzbekistan where four of Musa’s siblings died of malnutrition. In exile, the family lived in poverty, and four of Musa’s siblings died of malnutrition. In exile Musa worked in a cotton warehouse and in 1957 he became a machinist and tractor driver.{{sfn|Allworth|1998|pp.167-169}}{{sfn|RFE/RL|2008}}{{sfn|janpalach.cz}} |

During the era of [[Leonid Brezhnev]] the Crimean Tatar repatriation movement was supported by [[Soviet]] human rights activists, such as [[Petro Grigorenko]] and [[Andrej Sakharov]]. In September 1967 the Soviet authorities dropped the accusation against the Crimean Tatar people.{{sfn|RFE/RL|2008}} |

In April 1975 Musa came back to Crimea. He settled near near Simferopol, in the village of Besh-Terek (Donske) where he bought a house. But he did not obtain a notarial certificate of the house and a residence permit. He was arrested on 23 April 1976, and on 13 May 1976 he was sentenced to two years imprisonment without probation in Kremenchuk in Poltava. His wife, Zekiye Abdulla, was sentenced to two years probation. After several months the rest of his sentence was changed to penal labour in a local refinery and on 18 July 1977 the court released him. But once again, the local authotities denied his residency and continued to harass him. He often talked with his friends about the tragic situation of the Crimean Tatars. On 20 June 1978 new criminal charges were brought against his family and when the police came to his house on 23 June 1978, Musa doused himself with petrol and lit a match dying from his burns on 28 June 1978. He was buried in Besh-Terek. On 4 July 1978.{{sfn|Allworth|1998|pp.167-169}}{{sfn|RFE/RL|2008}}{{sfn|janpalach.cz}} |

Russian dissident Andrej Sakharov sent a letter to Leonid Brezhnev and asked him to assure the return of justice to Crimean Tatars.{{sfn|janpalach.cz}} |
