After his reaction to incident with Chechen woman, Delimkhanov reminded of Musaeva's case

Adam Delimkhanov, an advisor to the head of Chechnya, and Mansur Soltaev, the Chechen Ombudsperson, have criticized Alexander Zakuskin, a Moscow deputy, for the latter's conflict with an elderly Chechen woman; however, they had reacted completely differently to the kidnapping of Zarema Musaeva by Chechen law enforcers, Instagram users and readers of the "Caucasian Knot" have pointed out.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that on February 12, Alexander Zakuskin, the head of the council of deputies of the Meschansky District of Moscow, promised, in his conversation with Adam Delimkhanov, who phoned him, to apologize for the incident with an elderly Chechen woman, Salima Yusupkhadjieva. In his turn, Mansur Soltaev said that he would insist on initiating a criminal case against Zakuskin under the article on intentional infliction of minor bodily harm.

In their comments on the post with Mansur Soltaev's statement on the Instagram account of the "Grozny-Inform" News Agency, social network users recalled that the reaction of Chechen authorities was completely different in the case of the abduction of the elderly Zarema Musaeva by Chechen law enforcers from Nizhny Novgorod. "And who calls whom, who abducts innocent women! It's ridiculous," the user eva448811 has written.

The difference in reaction of Chechen officials to the incident with Salima Yusupkhadjieva and the Zarema Musaeva's case was also noted by the reader of the "Caucasian Knot" with the nickname jeannie_glover. "Soltaev's reaction to the incident involving a Moscow deputy and an elderly Chechen woman, is of course adequate. But for some reason, this same Ombudsperson, a little earlier, failed to react in any way to the threats of another deputy – Adam Delimkhanov, a Russian State Duma MP, who publicly threatened to cut off the heads of critics of Chechen authorities, similar to the statements by Chechen ministers and law enforcers against the Yangulbaev family; he also keeps silent regarding the [unjustified] detention of the seriously sick Zarema Musaeva," the reader has stated.
