They want to forcefully send a Muslim participant in a show on Channel One to SVO

Security forces conducted a raid on migrants in Kotelniki near Moscow. They took everyone who had recently received a Russian passport directly from the mosque during prayer. Among the detainees was Mamut Useinov, a finalist of the show “Sing a Star” on Channel One.

The young man said that they want to send some Muslims to military service, while others are offered to sign a contract with the Ministry of Defense. The security forces put the people on three buses, brought them to the military registration and enlistment office, took away all their documents and sent them for a medical examination. Almost everyone was declared fit for service.

According to Useinov, he did not serve due to health reasons. He and several other people refused to go anywhere and now they are not being allowed out - the military registration and enlistment office employees told them to wait for the Investigative Committee employees.
