Tumso treats Kadyrov's meeting with relatives of deceased Gudermes woman as rigged trial

The mother of the deceased Gudermes woman was forced to apologize and self-incriminate – this was the comment of Tumso Abdurakhmanov, a blogger, to the meeting with the participation of the head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that the Chechen Prosecutor initiated an inquiry into reports about the murder by a Gudermes resident of his wife. On June 20, the body of the young woman was exhumed by investigators. After the exhumation, the mother stated that she saw a scar and abrasions on her daughter's body. However, on June 23, at a meeting at the Gudermes Mayoralty with the participation of the head of Chechnya, she apologized for the words about her daughter's violent death.

On June 24, in his Instagram public, Tumso Abdurakhmanov commented on mother's apologies at the meeting with Ramzan Kadyrov.

Tumso treated the meeting held by Kadyrov as "a rigged trial with apologies, humiliation and coercion." "The mother of this dead girl – she was forced to apologize and to self-incriminate. The mother's relatives who arrived there were also forced to apologize," the blogger has stated.

He noted that the only question that worries him and the public is the death of the young woman: was the death violent or natural?

"If you still don't know the cause of the death, why are you arranging this rigged trial, where you blame the mother's side?" he asks the head of Chechnya in absentia.

Abdurakhmanov believes that after this meeting no one will believe the medical examination outcomes. "The party of this girl will not insist on further proceedings," the blogger said, as he believes that they were intimidated.
