Dagestan journalist demands the release of Abdulmumin Gadzhiev
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[KavkazUzel] Deputy editor-in-chief of Chernovik Magomed Magomedov, at a single picket in Makhachkala, demanded the release of the convicted editor of the publication Abdulmumin Gadzhiev.

As the "Caucasian Knot" wrote, Abdulmumin Gadzhiev's colleagues consider his criminal case to be political persecution and regularly hold single pickets in his support. On February 26, as a week earlier, such  a picket was held at the traditional place - the intersection of Dakhadayev Street and Gamzatov Avenue - by the deputy chief editor of Chernovik, Magomed Magomedov.

The editor of the Chernovik newspaper, Abdulmumin Gadzhiev, as well as the head of the Ansar charitable foundation, Abubakar Rizvanov, and businessman Kemal Tambiev, were arrested in June 2019 on charges of financing terrorism. On September 12, 2023,  the court sentenced  Gadzhiev to 17 years in prison, Rizvanov to 18 years, and Kemal Tambiev to 17.5 years. The prosecution did not present convincing evidence in court, the defendants said in their final plea. Details of the case are collected in the Caucasian Knot material  “Golunov number two”: the main thing about the case of Abdulmumin Gadzhiev.”

Today Magomed Magomedov went out on a solo picket in support of Abdulmumin Gadzhiev, he reported at 13.20 Moscow time in his telegram channel “Chernovik”. “In Makhachkala, at the intersection of Dakhadayev Street and R. Gamzatov Avenue, a single picket is being held demanding the release of the journalist of the Chernovik newspaper Abdulmumin Gadzhiev and the termination of the criminal case against him,” the publication says.

The message is illustrated with a photograph in which Magomedov stands with a poster: “Freedom for Abdulmumin Gadzhiev.” No other people are visible next to him in the frame.

Let us remind you that on January 29, “New Business” journalist Idris Yusupov * went out on a single picket in support of Gadzhiev, but security forces interfered with the action three times until it had to be completed due to the fact that another man unfurled a similar poster next to Yusupov.
