Adam Kadyrov blamed preachers of nationalist hatred for the murder of a Tajik boy

Following the murder of 10-year-old Kobiljon Aliyev, a boy from a Tajik family, at a school near Moscow, Adam Kadyrov, the son and aide of the head of Chechnya, stated that the tragedy was not an isolated incident, but the result of a "systemic problem."

He blamed the incident on "preachers of hatred" who had "sown the poison of hatred for years" against the people of Central Asia and the North Caucasus. Kadyrov Jr. emphasized the need to counter Nazism not only on Russia's borders but also within Russia.

"Our country recently faced a monstrous crime. A criminal, driven by Nazi ideology, brutally took the life of a 10-year-old child. I express my sincere condolences to the boy's family and friends. Who has been sowing the poison of hatred against people from Central Asia and the Caucasus in the media for years? "Whose preaching of intolerance is poisoning minds, turning teenagers into instruments of evil? It was precisely in the communities of these preachers of hatred that, after the tragedy, the child's memory and the pain of his loved ones were mocked," Kadyrov stated.

As a reminder, on December 16, a knife-wielding teenager committed a terrorist attack on a school in the Odintsovo district of the Moscow region. As a result of the brutal attack, 10-year-old Kobiljon Aliyev, a Tajik child, died at the scene, and a security guard was taken to the hospital with injuries. Before the attack, the killer reportedly asked the boy, "What nationality are you?"
