A resident of Dagestan complained of torture and declared non-involvement in the terrorist attacks in Makhachkala and Derbent
Dagestan resident Zaur Magomedov, arrested on charges of involvement in attacks on churches and synagogues in Makhachkala and Derbent, declared his innocence. The deputy chairman of the public monitoring commission of Dagestan, Shamil Khadulaev, spoke about this.
“Magomedov, in his statement addressed to us, said that he had nothing to do with Osman Omarov’s group, but was familiar with him, since he performed finishing work for him. Magomedov also stated that he was tortured with electric shocks, painful techniques were applied to his body, and a grenade was attached to his tied hands, which was then planted in his apartment. There was no lawyer around then,” Shadulaev wrote in a telegram.
Let us remind you that on the evening of June 23, militants attacked Orthodox churches and synagogues in Derbent and Makhachkala. 18 police officers, five civilians and five attackers were killed. One of the attackers is Osman Omarov, the son of the ex-head of the Sergokalinsky district of Dagestan, Magomed Omarov.
