Five months ago, Kyazim Uzdenov, the brother of Klara and Alim, disappeared. On May 19, several weeks after his disappearance, the house of the Uzdenov family was searched. The search was conducted by staff members of the Centre "E" (unit to combat extremism, note of the "Caucasian Knot"). "The search warrant stated that he was an IAF member. And the criminal case was instituted against him. Till present, we know nothing more about the Kyazim's fate," Klara has said.
