The Shali City Court of the Chechen Republic, as expected, denied the parole of Zarema Musaeva. He agreed with the arguments of the state prosecution and the colony. They believe that the goals of the punishment have not been achieved and Musaeva should not be released. The woman was hospitalized several times in the colony, and her health continues to deteriorate.
An objection to early release from OTP BANK, whose representative appeared in Musaeva’s fraud case as a victim, was read out in court. The text says that the convicted person “did not take action to repay the damage.” Lawyer Alexander Savin noted that this document came as a surprise to him. According to him, the bank had not previously announced any damage.
Let us recall that in July, a court in Grozny found Zarema Musaeva guilty of using violence against a police officer and fraud and sentenced her to five years in prison. According to investigators, a woman scratched the face of a police officer from Chechnya while she was being taken from an apartment in Nizhny Novgorod to Grozny.
In addition, she was accused of aiding a certain Madina Azimova, who fraudulently issued consumer loans to insolvent borrowers.
Zarema Musayeva is the mother of Chechen activists Abubakar, Ibragim and Baysangur Yangulbaev. Human rights activists claim that she was kidnapped as a hostage and convicted of her sons’ opposition activities.
