The court hearing in the case of Nikita Zhuravel was postponed due to the failure of Chechen imams to appear
The court in Grozny postponed the hearing for the third time in the case against Nikita Zhuravel, accused of burning the Koran near a mosque in Volgograd. The victims in the case are 13 imams of Grozny mosques, who again did not appear at the hearing.
In August, Nikita Zhuravel stated that he was beaten by Ramzan Kadyrov’s 15-year-old son Adam in a pre-trial detention center in Grozny. A month later, the head of Chechnya published a video of the beating. Two weeks later, Kadyrov Sr. announced that his son was awarded the title “Hero of the Chechen Republic.” Then the teenager received many regional orders - KBR, KCR and Tatarstan.
Recently, a member of United Russia, deputy Azat Khamaev, at a meeting of the Tatarstan parliament, criticized the head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, for beating prisoners and awarding his son the title of Hero. However, the very next day he publicly apologized, calling his statement overly emotional.
