Authorities in Russia’s North Ossetia republic have said they are taking measures to protect Karina Kodzayeva, who became the target of an online harassment campaign after posts published by platforms affiliated with the Caucasian Community movement. In a response to journalist Ksenia Sobchak’s appeal, the office of the regional human rights commissioner said the case is under the personal supervision of regional head Sergei Menyaylo and that law enforcement agencies may seek to block channels used to distribute unlawful content and identify those responsible for administering them.
In the French city of Arras, a 20-year-old ethnic Ingush carried out a knife attack at the school where he used to study. As a result, a literature teacher was killed and two people were injured.
The attacker, Mokhammad Mogushkov, shouted “Allahu Akbar.” Previously, the French police, as local media write, included him in a special list S, for so-called radical Islamism.
The attacker was detained. His brother was also detained.
Французские СМИ идентифицируют Мохаммада Могушкова как уроженца Чечни, «родившегося в России». Такая путаница, вероятно, связана с тем, что в 2000-е годы некоторые уроженцы Ингушетии и Дагестана получали статус беженцев в странах Европы как выходцы из Чечни.
On October 6, 2020, in the suburbs of Paris, Chechen Abdullah Anzorov killed history teacher Samuel Paty. The attacker was shot dead by police immediately after committing the crime. Let us recall that the murder of a French high school teacher occurred after he showed his students a caricature of the Prophet Muhammad published by Charlie Hebdo during a lesson on freedom of speech.
According to Novaya Gazeta, Anzorov could have been backed by the Ministry of Internal Affairs Center for Chechnya. In fact, the young man could have been recruited to carry out a terrorist attack. This information was provided by former police officer Yasin Khalidov, who was detained in May while trying to leave Russia for Kazakhstan. Let us remember that he was transferred to Chechnya, and since then his fate has been unknown.
