Don't use non-ASCII characters in the link.
The link anchor is just a string that is used internally.
It is never displayed in the PDF, so why risk running
into encoding problems by using non-ASCII characters?
PDF does not use UTF8 at all.
You'll have to transform any UTF8 characters into a UTF16
ASCII-HeX representation of the Unicode code-point,
both in the destination-label and in any corresponding
hyperlink target-labels that point at it.

Hyperref gives the means to do this, using \pdfstringdef .
But since this label is only used internally, you might as well
save your self some trouble, and (La)TeX some processing time,
by just using ASCII letters for such things.
