Emran Navruzbekov, a former employee of the Dagestan department of the FSB, who was deported from Poland, spoke about an escape attempt, after which he stopped communicating. This is reported by the Dossier center.
As Dossier writes, on June 18, Navruzbekov told one of the correspondents that he was taken to Moscow from Kaliningrad and he was able to escape. “I ran away yesterday [June 17]. I swear my hands are all beat up. Help, I don't know what to do anymore. I swear, I don’t want to set anyone up, but I already have nothing to eat, ”the Dossier quotes the words of a former FSB officer.
According to the center, on June 17 Navruzbekov's term of administrative arrest expired. Half an hour before his expected release, five security officials arrived at the temporary detention facility in Kaliningrad and took him to Moscow. There, at the Sheremetyevo airport, the convoy handed him over to the «Dagestanis» — «Dossier» emphasizes that, probably, they are Navruzbekov's former colleagues from the FSB, who were supposed to deliver him to his native region, but later the detainee managed to escape.
As the ex-FSB officer said, he fled to a village 70 kilometers from Sheremetyevo, where he bought food with his last money. When journalists tried to find out whether Navruzbekov really escaped or whether he was under the control of the security forces, the ex-FSB officer stopped responding to messages, after which his phone went off. The Dossier Center found the owner of the phone from which Navruzbekov wrote, it turned out to be a worker from an agricultural farm 70 kilometers from Sheremetyevo — the man said that “Emran was taken away.”
Earlier, Navruzbekov told human rights activists and journalists how criminal cases are fabricated in Dagestan under terrorist articles. In a December interview with the founder of the Gulagu.net project, Vladimir Osechkin, Navruzbekov claimed that “people connected with the special services” were organizing “controlled attacks” in the region and that FSB and MVD operatives were planting drugs and weapons on people.
In an interview with Kavkaz .Realities» Navruzbekov said that in 2017 the authorities wanted to send him to Turkey «to collect information and counter opposition activists who emigrated there and wanted natives of Dagestan, Chechnya and other republics,» but he did not want to do this.
After that, he left for Poland with his family, his wife was given political asylum there, but he was not. On May 17, 2023, the ex-silovik was detained while checking documents in a refugee camp and arrested due to a possible violation of the rules of conduct. On the same day, the court banned Navruzbekov from entering Poland and other Schengen countries, after which he was placed in a center for foreigners. In early June, Poland deported Navruzbekov to Russia.
