A human rights activist from Chechnya is threatened by the relatives of an Ingush woman who ran away from home and whom he gave a lift to.

Magomed Alamov, a lawyer for the Team Against Torture, accompanied 27-year-old Marina Yandieva from Ingushetia, who escaped from domestic violence. At first, relatives put Marina on the wanted list as missing, and then filed a complaint against her about the theft of jewelry.

Three days later, Chechen police officers forcibly brought Magomed’s brother to Kadyrov’s regiment: there they threatened him and demanded that the human rights activist return to Chechnya. Thus, Magomed and his relatives living in Chechnya became hostages.

The girl's relatives threaten to kill Alamov and his family if she does not return home within a week. The “Team Against Torture” appealed to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the prosecutor’s office with a demand to ensure the safety of the employee and his family members.
