The European Parliament spoke out in defense of Zarema Musayeva and human rights in Chechnya

The European Parliament adopted a resolution condemning the politically motivated kidnapping of Zarema Musaeva in Chechnya and calling for her immediate release.

Deputies expressed serious concern about the harassment and attacks on lawyers and journalists who accompanied Musayeva during her trial. The document also calls on the international community to respond to the alarming human rights situation in Russia, including the Chechen Republic.

Pressure on Zarema Musaeva’s family began in 2017 after the Chechen authorities accused her sons, the Yangulbaevs, of openly criticizing Ramzan Kadyrov. In 2021, security forces kidnapped and took a woman to Grozny, where she became a defendant in a criminal case and was sentenced to five years in prison. Currently, the Yangulbaev brothers, their father and sister are outside the Russian Federation.
