The defence has failed to present documents stating that Zarema Musaeva needs hospital treatment, the court in Grozny has decided and refused to order a medical examination of her health condition.
The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that on May 11, Alexander Savin and Alexander Nemov, the advocates for Zarema Musaeva, filed a petition asking to conduct an examination of her health. They explained that her health was "rapidly deteriorating," and an examination was needed to decide on her hospitalization.
