Deputy of the State Duma from Chechnya Adam Delimkhanov, during a live broadcast on Instagram, promised to cut off the heads of family members of the former federal judge Saidi Yangulbaev. A recording of the appeal with a translation into Russian was published by the telegram channel 1ADAT.
“Know that day and night, not sparing our lives, property and offspring, we will pursue you until we cut off your heads and kill you.
We really have enmity and blood feud with you.
This also applies to those who translate this video into Russian,” Delimkhanov said.
The judge's son, ex-lawyer of the «Committee against Torture» Abubakar Yangulbaev, in a conversation with The Insider * said that the words of the State Duma deputy «naturally are taken seriously.»
The head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, also made threats against the Yangulbaev family. He called on foreign states to «kick out» the retired judge's family.
“From now on, the family will have to live looking around, shuddering at any knock on the door. Our people are so offended by the vile and hysterical verbiage of the Yangulbaevs that
the first Chechen will deal with them as soon as the opportunity arises.
Our life is devoted to Islam, and we are only happy to die in the fight against such apostates and scumbags,” Kadyrov said.
In addition, in his video message, the head of the republic again called for criminal proceedings against human rights activist Igor Kalyapin, Novaya Gazeta journalist Elena Milashina, as well as Novaya Gazeta and the Dozhd TV channel*.
