The Shali City Court scheduled the first hearing on a new criminal case against Zarema Musayeva for March 21. According to investigators, she hit an FSIN officer who accompanied her during trips to the hospital and tore off his shoulder strap. The defendant denies all charges against her. In addition, she claims that given her health, she would not have been physically able to attack the guard even if she had wanted to.

Zarema Musayeva is the wife of former federal judge Saidi Yangulbaev and the mother of Chechen activists Ibragim, Baysangur, and Abubakar Yangulbaev. In early March 2024, the Pyatigorsk Cassation Court reduced her sentence on the previous charge, reducing her prison term from 5 years to 4 years and 9 months. In July 2023, a court in Grozny found the woman guilty of using violence against a police officer and fraud and sentenced her to five years in prison. Investigators believe that she scratched the face of a Chechen police officer during her transfer from Nizhny Novgorod to Grozny. Human rights activists claim that the woman was kidnapped as a hostage and convicted for her sons' opposition activities.

In January 2022, a scandal broke out in the Russian Federation, which was provisionally called the "Yangulbayev case". Then the son of Zarema Musayeva, a lawyer for the "Committee Against Torture" Abubakar Yangulbayev, reported the disappearance of several dozen of his relatives in Chechnya. In August 2023, he said that four of his relatives were forcibly sent to war in Ukraine, having been registered as volunteers. It is noteworthy that all of Musayeva's sons became defendants in criminal cases under terrorist articles. The media reported that they are currently abroad. The head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, stated that “the Yangulbaevs as a whole family unequivocally support terrorist groups.”
