A decision on whether to extradite mathematician and blogger Mikhail Verbitsky, detained in Yerevan, to Russian authorities will be made soon. He is expected to be released soon, according to Artur Sakunts, head of the Yerevan-based human rights organization Helsinki Citizens' Assembly - Vanadzor.
Adam Kadyrov, the youngest son of the head of Chechnya, suffered serious consequences in a car accident in Grozny on January 16. According to Novaya Gazeta Evropa, his spleen was removed in a Moscow hospital, and he was diagnosed with a fractured jaw and optic nerve damage. The newspaper notes that there is a risk of losing the sight in one eye.
After a three-week stay in the hospital, Adam Kadyrov was discharged, but he has been prescribed a six-month diet. In a video published on February 10, Ramzan Kadyrov called his son "resurrected," although he had previously dismissed reports of the accident as "fabricated."
The fate of the three security guards traveling with Adam Kadyrov remains unknown, but sources report that at least two of them suffered serious head and spinal injuries. The suspects are Bislan Kaimov and Apti Iraskhanov, who were also taken to Moscow for treatment.
Yesterday, the VChK-OGPU Telegram channel reported that Adam Kadyrov had been discharged from a Moscow hospital and was in Grozny.
