On May 6 in the morning, Hadji Murat Khalitov, a resident of the village of Serebryakovskaya, Kizlyar District, was detained. His advocate Murad Magomedov said that since May 17 he was not able to contact his client; and he fears that the detainee is tortured. The investigator in charge of Khalitov's case told the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent that the suspect was kept at the IVS (temporary detention facility) of the city of Kizlyar.
