In Chechnya, people are being detained and forced to go to war with Ukraine
Chechen security forces have returned to the practice of "sweeps": they are detaining local residents. People are offered a choice: either they will go to the "SVO", or a criminal case will be opened against them.
Such events intensified after unknown persons fired on a column of the Russian National Guard near the village of Petropavlovskaya in the Grozny district on October 24. As a result of the shelling, according to the official version, one serviceman was killed and another was wounded. This was reported by the human rights center "Memorial".
According to human rights activists, there is a group of 20 detainees in the Staropromyslovsky department alone. There are also reports of hundreds of detained Chechen residents after the "sweeps" in the Grozny district.
With the help of volunteers, it was possible to find out the details of one of the detentions. On November 3, security forces came again to 42-year-old Rizvan Batyrov, a disabled man with two minor children. Rizvan was forcibly dragged to the police station, he resisted, for which the security forces beat him in front of his 82-year-old mother and took him to the station. Now Rizvan Batyrov is still in the police station, what happened to him is unknown.
