20-year-old Ingush resident asks not to return her to relatives
20-year-old Aina Mankieva from Ingushetia, who was reported missing by her relatives, has asked not to look for her and not to inform her relatives of her whereabouts.
The information about the disappearance of 20-year-old Anna Mankieva has been spreading on Ingush social networking services since April 28.
The messages included a passport photo of the girl and a call to report her whereabouts to the specified phone number or “to the law enforcement bodies.”
Today, a video has been disseminated through the social networking services in which Aina Mankieva states that her life is in danger if she returns home. The recording has been published by the serdalo_ingushetii public account on Instagram*.
In her hand, the girl is holding a piece of paper with the date of the entry: May 1, 2025.
In the video, the girl mentions her full name and passport details. “I left home voluntarily on April 28, 2025. My life, health, and safety (now) are not in any danger. Please do not look for me or put me on the wanted list. I also ask you not to provide any information about me to my relatives. I do not plan to return home, because such return could threaten my life, health, and safety,” the girl says.
In their comments posted under the publication about the video, social media users criticize the girls’ escapes from home. “Why do you disgrace your parents, brothers, and sisters? And what are you trying to achieve in this way?” asked user _amina_arsamakova__.
“There are many of them who left home like that. Does anyone know how their lives turned out? It does not seem to me that the person helped her escape for free,” wrote user _____harbor.
“Girls, please don’t run away from home if you have problems. Your mother will understand you and calmly solve your problems, trust your mothers (...) Why do you traumatize your parents in such a way?” suggests user sabishka_55554.
“Her mother didn’t support her, as she was afraid of her son addicted to alcohol. Allah forbid that girls are born in such families,” objects user 77.kvhoeva.
