Zarema Musayeva burst into tears in court and thanked everyone who supported her
The day before, during a court hearing in Grozny, a native of Chechnya, Zarema Musayeva, stated that she had not committed any crimes. “How good-natured person I am, people know. Allah sees that my conscience is clear. I am grateful to everyone who supported me, wrote letters, who wished me well and all the best,” a tearful woman addressed the meeting participants.
The prosecutor's office asked to sentence Musaeva to 5.5 years in prison. According to lawyers, the accusation under the article on the use of violence against a police officer is based on the testimony of fictitious witnesses. Some of them changed their testimony during the investigation. The examination does not confirm Musayeva's involvement in the crime. The charge under article about swindle also does not maintain any criticism.
Recall that Zarema Musaeva was abducted in Nizhny Novgorod in January 2022, and then taken to Chechnya. Despite health problems, she is being held in a pre-trial detention center on charges of violence against a representative of the authorities, which is dangerous to life and health. According to investigators, when delivered, she scratched the face of a police officer.
