[KavkazUzel] Five Circassian activists detained during a march with Circassian flags in Nalchik have been released from a special detention center. Two more marchers remain under arrest.
As the "Caucasian Knot" reported, during a march with Circassian flags, timed to coincide with the 161st anniversary of the end of the Caucasian War, at least eight people were detained in Nalchik. They were given three to ten days of administrative arrest under the article on participation in an unsanctioned action and obstructing traffic. The only woman of the eight detainees, Marina Kalmykova, was released after three days of arrest on May 25.
The Caucasian War, which lasted from 1763 to 1864, brought the Adyghe people to the brink of extinction. After the war and the mass deportation of the Adyghe to the Ottoman Empire, only a little more than 50,000 people remained in their homeland. The Russian authorities have still not made a decision to recognize the genocide of the Circassians during the war, according to a report from the "Caucasian Knot". The end of the war was marked by a parade of Russian troops in Krasnaya Polyana on May 21, 1864.
The release of five arrested activists was reported today by Circassian activist Martin Kochesoko. He published a video of the activists meeting their comrades at the gates of the special detention center.
“They released some Circassian heroes who were arrested for participating in a march in memory of those who died for the freedom of Circassia,” he wrote on his Telegram channel.
According to Kochesoko, Khusein Gugov, Zuber Ivazov, Timur Nakhushev, Kazbek Mamikov and Bashir Erokov have been released. Two activists, Idar Tsipinov and Beslan Gedgafov, remain in custody.
