Ramzan Kadyrov's son Adam was awarded the title of Hero of Chechnya. This was announced by an ally of the head of Chechnya, State Duma deputy Adam Delimkhanov.
The title was established by Kadyrov himself in November 2022. According to the decree on the award, the decision to award it is made by the head of Chechnya himself. He decided to reward himself first in February 2023.
The regulations on the title say that it is awarded for “outstanding services to the Chechen Republic and its people associated with the accomplishment of a heroic feat.” “Such a high award is intended to appreciate the exploits of our compatriots taking part in the North Military District,” wrote Ramzan Kadyrov.
According to Delimkhanov, the merits of 15-year-old Adam Kadyrov lie in the fact that he “learned by heart” Koran, “proves himself in his studies” and “has won a number of bright and unconditional victories in prestigious mixed martial arts tournaments.”
They haven’t watched it and don’t want to watch it. How a lawyer, the Investigative Committee and the Kremlin react to the beating of Nikita Zhuravel by Kadyrov's son
In August, Ramzan Kadyrov and his son Adam came to the Grozny pre-trial detention center to see 19-year-old Nikita Zhuravel, who was arrested for burning the Koran in a Volgograde cell. The investigation of the case was transferred to Chechnya, although the Volgograd resident is in no way connected with the republic.
During the visit, Adam Kadyrov beat Zhuravel, and a month later his father posted a video of the beating with the words: “He beat him and did the right thing.” According to Baza, the Ministry of Internal Affairs refused to investigate this due to the fact that Adam Kadyrov is 15 years old and has not reached the age of criminal responsibility.
