Chechen woman with three children faces deportation from Bosnia

Selima, 32, who fled domestic violence, has been detained in Bosnia. According to the Chechen Diaspora, she was put on the wanted list in Russia at the insistence of her husband's relatives.

Selima, who flew in from Turkey with her three children, was told that she had been wanted by Interpol for two years, and that she fled to Turkey because of domestic violence. Apparently, her husband's relatives tried to set Selima up; and an investigation was launched at their request, members of the Chechen Diaspora have stated; The respective petition was signed, among others, by Said-Emin Ibragimov, the president of the international association "Peace and Human Rights", and Fatima Gazieva, an activist of "Women for Peace Around the World".

Selima had lived in Turkey for several years and had no grounds for arrest, Khasan Khalitov, an oppositional Chechen blogger, wrote in his Telegram channel.

Selima was a victim of domestic violence and was saving her children from her cruel husband, the authors of the petition placed on the change.org website claim.

It should be noted here that filing false crime reports, in which relatives accuse the women who have fled from domestic violence, has become a way to return them to their families. Thus, a native of Chechnya was forced to leave Russia due to violence from her husband, to whom she was married when she was 15 years old. After the woman escaped, her husband and father ensured that law enforcers put her on the wanted list.
