Chechnya May Have Kidnapped Dzhokhar Dudayev's Relative
Lom-Ali Idigov, a cousin of the first president of the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria Dzhokhar Dudayev, has been kidnapped in Chechnya. This was reported by the Chechen opposition Telegram channel 1ADAT.
 
According to the channel, Idigov was doing business in Moscow, but on September 17, he decided to come home to the village of Katayama, a microdistrict of Grozny, where he was detained.
 
“Lom-Ali was not involved in criminal activity, the most they can find fault with him is that he posted Dzhokhar Dudayev on his Instagram,” the channel writes.
