[KavkazUzel] Security forces in Grozny detained a local resident Roza Tsaraliyeva, after which the head of the Center for Islamic Medicine, Adam Elzhurkaev, reprimanded her for engaging in the occult, follows from the plot of the Grozny ChGTRK.

As the "Caucasian Knot" has reported, since July 2019, persecution of residents for occultism has intensified in Chechnya. The Grozny state television channel regularly releases reports in which local residents repent of practicing witchcraft. On October 29, 2022, the security forces detained Khasukha Suliev, a resident of the Gudermes district of Chechnya, after which the head of the Center for Islamic Medicine, Adam Elzhurkaev, reprimanded him for engaging in the occult.

TV spots with public confessions of sorcerers in Chechnya are only part of the practice of public apologies, which, at the suggestion of the head of the republic, Ramzan Kadyrov , is also practiced in other regions. More details about cases of forced apologies can be found in the "Caucasian Knot" reference "Fashion for apologies: from Chechnya to the outskirts" and in " Chronicle of public apologies in the Caucasus ".

A video that Grozny resident Roza Tsaraliyeva was detained for occultism was published tonight on the Grozny ChGTRK Instagram page*.

“In Grozny, law enforcement agencies detained a swindler who provided occult services. The swindler was identified thanks to neighbors who were tired of constant quarrels in the apartment.

The story says that people most often turned to Tsaraliyeva with a request to improve their financial condition and to gain health. "The head of the Center for Islamic Medicine, Adam Elzhurkaev, spoke with the "sorceress". He explained how big a sin she commits from the point of view of religion. In addition, the woman kept all the data of her clients, so it was not difficult for law enforcement officers to find these people. With several of them, also Adam Elzhurkaev talked," the report says.

This post on the page of ChGTRK "Grozny" in Instagram, at 07.35 Moscow time, scored 1063 views and 202 comments. Most of their authors condemned Tsaraliyev.

Recall that in 2013, persecution of healers and psychics unfolded in Chechnya, when, against the backdrop of the fight against magicians and sorcerers, announced by the head of the republic, Ramzan Kadyrov, dozens of people were detained, and some went missing. Then the campaign went into decline.

Witch hunters  are also being hunted in other  republics of the North Caucasus, noted journalist Vladimir Sevrinovsky, who published a study on Islamic medicine clinics in December 2020. According to him, in Dagestan and Chechnya, Islamic exorcists work with the support and funding of local authorities, and residents often prefer to turn to healers, ignoring official medicine.

In Russia, criminal prosecution of psychics and magicians is practiced on charges of fraud, but it is difficult to prove fraudulent intent in such cases, so law enforcement agencies "do not really like " such cases, lawyer Abusupyan Gaitaev told the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent earlier.

“The one who is accused of fraud can say that, for example, he promised to perform a certain ceremony, some procedure, for which he took a fee. The client voluntarily agreed, but the result was not guaranteed by agreements,” the lawyer explained.
