[KavkazUzel] Four defendants in the case of the riots at the airport that took place in October 2023 have been released from a detention center in Makhachkala.

As the "Caucasian Knot" reported, on October 29, 2023, mass riots occurred at the Makhachkala airport due to a report of the arrival of a plane with passengers from Israel. More than 20 people were injured in the riots, including nine police officers. 140 people are in custody in criminal cases regarding the riots at the Makhachkala airport, 1,200 people were brought to administrative responsibility, Dagestan Interior Minister Abdurashid Magomedov reported on July 9. The accused claim that they were at the airport, but did not take part in the riots, Dagestan POC Chairman Shamil Khadulaev said on June 13.  

Four people arrested in connection with the riots at the Makhachkala airport have been released from custody, Interfax reported today, citing the chairman of the Dagestan public monitoring commission, Shamil Khadulaev.

"Four defendants in the airport case have been released from Makhachkala's SIZO-1," Khadulaev wrote today on his Telegram channel. He listed their names: Arsen Arbuliev, Saidapandi Abdulazizov, Nazhmudin Abakarov and Malik Aliyev

"Kavkazsky Uzel" also wrote that the Armavir City Court twice postponed the start of the hearing of the case of riots at the Makhachkala airport against five defendants - Anvarbek Atayev, Islam Ibragimov, Magomed Omaraskhabov, Rabadan Radzhabov and Salik Ramazanov. The arrest of the accused was extended until December 30.

At the hearing of the Armavir City Court on the case of riots at the Makhachkala airport, the state prosecutor  asked to sentence  the five defendants to terms of seven to 10 years.

The defendant in the pogrom case, Magomed Omaraskhabov, was at the Makhachkala airport for family reasons, another defendant, Anvarbek Aliyev, came out of curiosity, the lawyers said. Several more cases will soon be submitted to the courts of Kuban and Stavropol, the Prosecutor General's Office of Russia reported.
