Student kidnapped in the capital of Chechnya
In the evening on August 18, Tamerlan Nasipov, 19, a fifth year student of the State Grozny Oil Institute (SGOI), was kidnapped by a group of armed persons in masks from his house in the Leninskiy District of the city of Grozny.
The "Caucasian Knot" correspondent was informed about the incident by the relatives of the young man. As they said, a couple of days prior to kidnapping, Tamerlan had been detained by employees of ORB-2 (Operations and Search Bureau); he was released after interrogation.
"It happened at about half past seven in the afternoon," said one of Nasipov's relatives. "Several persons, eight or even more, rushed into the house at 77 Bolshaya Street (Leninskiy District of the city of Grozny), where Tamerlan lives with his mother. The attackers were all in masks, and nobody of them presented himself. They all spoke Russian."
"One of them declared that 'it was check of passports', then, they took Tamerlan's passport, forced him out of the house, pushed into a car and left nobody knows where. ...This is a real kidnapping, committed, I have absolutely no doubts, by employees of one of power agencies," the relative has concluded.
