Moscow court returns case of Chechen schoolboy for whom Kadyrov stood up for further investigation
A Moscow court has returned the case of 14-year-old Muslim Murdiev to the prosecutor. It turned out that the participants were not familiarized with the materials of the criminal case. This was reported by the Chechen Human Rights Commissioner Mansur Soltayev.
“According to the lawyers, Russian judicial practice does not know of such a long arrest for a child, depriving him of school. At the same time, I know that Murdiev’s health has worsened. All this is the result of the stress he experienced against the background of the criminal case,” the ombudsman wrote on his Telegram channel.
Earlier, Moscow law enforcement agencies refused to consider requests and petitions from the mother of Muslim Murdiev, accused of provoking conflicts and fights, more than 700 times. She asked for an “honest investigation” in a complaint addressed to the Chairman of the Investigative Committee Alexander Bastrykin.
According to the woman, the investigation did not provide her with CCTV footage of Murdiev. She also said that her son was threatened with a knife during the fight.
Recall that last year, during his live broadcast in Grozny, Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov criticized the heads of the Investigative Committee and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Alexander Bastrykin and Vladimir Kolokoltsev, over the criminal case against Muslim Murdiev and demanded that he be released. The boy is under house arrest, and his defense insists on his absolute innocence. The reason for initiating the criminal case was a fight in which Murdiev, according to the lawyers, stood up for his friend against the aggressor.
