I did not know of Ilyas, but I feel compelled to put a flower of remembrance to honor his life. This tyranny must not go without scorn. Thank you Ilyas for your work.

Я очень огорчена смертью Ильи. Я только хочу чтобы все знали что он был храбрым и решительным человеком. Он любил свою работу, и отдал бы за нее свою жизнь. Жалко что мы потеряли такого человека. Да будет земля ему пухом.

I am very distressed to hear about Ilyas's death. All I want to say and let the world know is that he was a brave and determined guy. He loved what he was doing and he would have given his life for his work, his passion. It is just so sad to go the way he did. May he rest in peace.
