[KavkazUzel] The court in Grozny postponed the hearing in the case of the burning of the Koran by Volgograd resident Nikita Zhuravel due to the failure of the imams of Grozny mosques, acting as victims, to appear. As the "Caucasian Knot" reported, on November 2, the court in Grozny, on the third attempt, began to consider the case of Volgograd resident Nikita Zhuravel, accused in the case of burning the Koran. On October 9 and October 24, court hearings were postponed due to the absence of imams of Grozny mosques acting as victims in the case. The court in Grozny postponed the hearing in the case of Nikita Zhuravel due to the failure of the victims to appear. The next court hearing is scheduled for November 28, TASS reported today. The "Caucasian Knot" also wrote that on September 25, the head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, published a video showing his 15-year-old son Adam Kadyrov beating Zhuravel in a pre-trial detention center. The head of Chechnya praised his son for this act. The actions of Kadyrov’s son were also approved by State Duma deputy Adam Delimkhanov  and Chechen Minister of National Policy Akhmed Dudayev. Human rights activists condemned the beating of Zhuravel in the pre-trial detention center. A number of heads of the North Caucasus republics presented awards to Adam Kadyrov. Thus, on November 7, the head of Kabardino-Balkaria, Kazbek Kokov  , announced that he had presented Adam Kadyrov with the highest award of the republic - the Order of Merit for the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic. The head of Tatarstan awarded Adam Kadyrov with the Order of Duslyk, the head of Karachay-Cherkessia Rashid Temrezov  with the Order of Merit for the Karachay-Cherkess Republic (the highest state award of the republic), and the Mufti of Karachay-Cherkessia awarded the son of the head of Chechnya  with the Order of Merit for the Umma. The presentation of the highest awards to Adam Kadyrov in Karachay-Cherkessia and Kabardino-Balkaria was dictated by the desire of the heads of the republics to show respect to his father, Akhmet Yarlykapov, a senior researcher at the Center for Caucasus Problems and Regional Security at MGIMO, told the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent. The awards for Kadyrov Jr. were initiated by Moscow as a signal of support for Ramzan Kadyrov's possible successor, President of the Assembly of Peoples of the Caucasus Ruslan Kutaev noted to the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent. Let us remind you that on October 17, a video was published in Chechen public pages showing one schoolchild being beaten by another. Speaker of the Chechen Parliament Magomed Daudov reacted to the video. He threatened to punish  the teenager's parents for his cruelty. Later, another video was published on social networks. It shows two schoolchildren in Chechnya, one of whom beat a peer, and the other filmed it on video, while washing the floors at school as punishment. The ending of this story differed sharply  from the story of the beating of Zhuravel by the son of the head of Chechnya, since Kadyrov’s son was not punished. |
