The Akhmat commander let it slip that Russian military personnel committed 187 crimes in the Kursk region

Russian military personnel committed 187 crimes in the Kursk region – murders, rapes, etc. These statistics were announced by the deputy head of the Main Military-Political Directorate of the Russian Armed Forces, commander of the Akhmat volunteer formation, Apti Alaudinov.

Alaudinov was answering a question from pro-government blogger Maxim Kalashnikov about whether he had heard rumors about the “inappropriate behavior” of Akhmat fighters in the rear.

“I am currently in the Kursk direction. I went to the head of the Kursk Region Department of Internal Affairs and asked him point-blank: “What problems do you have with Akhmat?” He smiled and said: “187 crimes have been committed by the military on our territory. These are murders, rapes, etc. None of these crimes were committed by the fighters of the Akhmat unit," Alaudinov shared.

Alaudinov had previously stated that Chechens who had surrendered to Ukrainian captivity were no longer needed. According to him, surrendering to captivity is a disgrace for a Chechen that can only be washed away with blood.
