Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. [KavkazUzel] In the North Caucasus, there is widespread use of torture, extrajudicial executions, forced disappearances, and in Chechnya, in particular, harsh suppression of political opponents, infringement of women's rights and persecution of people of non-traditional sexual orientation are widespread, noted the UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in Russia Mariana Katsarova.As the "Caucasian Knot" wrote, during the years of the counter-terrorism operation and the rule of Ramzan Kadyrov, thousands of people disappeared in Chechnya, but Russia did not take measures to investigate their disappearances, says the report of human rights activists Oleg Orlov and Alexander Cherkasov. They called on the OSCE to take measures to investigate the abductions, in particular, to establish an international court for crimes against humanity in Chechnya. Posted by: badanov 2023-10-05 |
