During the annual "Year in Review" press conference, Russian President Vladimir Putin, responding to a question about support for young families, noted the tradition of early marriages in the North Caucasus. He said he believed this was "right" and suggested "following their example," citing Ramzan Kadyrov's large family.
The Investigative Committee of the Investigative Committee for Chechnya opened a criminal case under the article on participation in an extremist organization against Baysangur Yangulbaev. This was reported by the telegram channel 1ADAT, which was recognized as "extremist" by the authorities of Chechnya.
It should be reminded that earlier the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation put Baysangur Yangulbaev on the federal wanted list. He lives abroad and is the son of Saidi Yangulbaev, a former judge of the Supreme Court of Chechnya, and the brother of Abubakar and Ibragim Yangulbaev, lawyers opposed to the Chechen authorities.
The Yangulbaev family was forced to leave the Russian Federation because of their persecution. However, in January 2022, Baysangur’s mother, Zarema Musaeva, was forcibly taken from her home in Nizhny Novgorod to Grozny. Since then, she has been in jail on charges of assaulting a police officer. Examination of the arguments of the investigation refutes.
