[KavkazUzel] At a court hearing in Grozny, the last three of the 13 imams recognized as victims in the case of the burning of the Koran by Volgograd resident Nikita Zhuravel were interrogated. One of the imams stated that Zhuravel’s act caused him moral harm.
Your attitude causes moral harm to the universe, which is, of course, your point.
As the "Caucasian Knot" wrote, on December 12, imams from Chechnya, who are victims in the case of Nikita Zhuravel, stated that the burning of the Koran insulted them and all Muslims. One of the imams complained that watching a video of the burning of the Koran caused his blood pressure to spike. 

On November 2, the court in Grozny began to consider the case of Volgograd resident Nikita Zhuravel, accused in the case of burning the Koran. He is accused of violating the right to freedom of conscience and religion and hooliganism . On October 13, in court, Zhuravel apologized to Muslims for his action, but admitted guilt only in the very fact of burning the Koran, saying that he had no motive for gross violation of public order. You can read more about the Zhuravel case in the Caucasian Knot information “ The beating of Nikita Zhuravel: why did Kadyrov’s men need to publish the video .”

Today, in the Visaitovsky District Court of Grozny, imams of Grozny mosques, acting as victims in the Zhuravel case, were interrogated. One of them, the imam of the Sheikh-Mansurovsky district mosque Beslan Visitov, called for the defendant to be punished “to the fullest extent of the law,” Chechnya Segodnya news agency reports.

The imam of the mosque in the Baysangurovsky district, Sulimpasha Misaev, stated in court that Nikita Zhuravel personally caused moral damage to him. “The incident that occurred greatly offended the feelings of Muslims and caused moral damage to me personally,” the agency quotes him as saying.

The last three victims were questioned in court today. Thus, all 13 imams of Grozny mosques, who were declared as victims, spoke in court, TASS reports citing its correspondent.

The next meeting is scheduled for January 9. Witnesses are expected to be questioned that day, the agency writes.

Let us remind you that 19-year-old Nikita Zhuravel was detained in Volgograd on May 20, 2023. According to investigators, he “on instructions from the SBU” set fire to the Koran and filmed it for a promised reward of 10 thousand rubles.

The Chairman of the Investigative Committee, Alexander Bastrykin, transferred the Zhuravel case to Chechnya, responding to the demands of the residents of the republic, who considered themselves the injured party. On May 27, Zhuravel was taken to the Grozny pre-trial detention center. Vladimir Putin announced on June 13 that Zhuravel would serve his sentence in one of the Muslim regions.
