An Azerbaijani court has remanded lawyer and human rights activist Namizad Safarov in custody for four months on fraud charges. He is accused of embezzling 53,000 manats (approximately $31,000).
The head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, held a meeting with the heads of the regional Ministry of Internal Affairs and the National Guard. He recalled that their relatives will also be held responsible for the actions of all “extremists and terrorists” operating from abroad.
“We constantly observe how on the platforms of a number of social networks administered from abroad, young people are encouraged to commit serious crimes. Any attempt to commit an attack on a person’s life will also affect the relatives of the perpetrator. They must know what a representative of their family does and bear responsibility for him, which is what Chechen adats have been teaching us for centuries,” Kadyrov said.
Also in his telegram channel it is indicated that in Chechnya the average salary increased by 11.2% and amounted to 36.6 thousand rubles. From January 1, the salaries of teachers, doctors, social security, cultural and scientific workers will be indexed by 9.8%.
