Representatives of «Team against Torture» claimed that the evidence was falsified in one of the expert examinations in the case of Zarema Musayeva, accused of causing harm to the health of a police officer. 

At the regular session of the Akhmatov District Court of Grozny, lawyers Alexander Savin and Alexander Nemov filed a petition that the conclusion of one of the expert examinations be excluded from the evidence in the criminal case. It found traces of the victim’s blood under the woman’s fingernails, but the sample was obtained in violation of the criminal procedure law. The case file does not provide any connection between the slices of the nails taken from Zarema and those that ended up in the study. 
The court dismissed the application, finding the conclusion legitimate. However, the judge promised to return to the evaluation of the lawyers' arguments at the time of sentencing. 

In January 2022, Zarema Musaeva was kidnapped in Nizhny Novgorod and then taken to Chechnya. Despite her health problems, she is kept in the Grozny detention center as a person involved in the case of assault of a policeman. 
According to the investigators, the accused scratched his face. The woman complained of impaired vision. She suffers from diabetes, and the disease is progressing.
