Arthur Dugzaev, 20, who, as gang members of puppet Kadirov kept asserting, returned from Azerbaijan with the aim to join the armed underground, and was liquidated on November 5 while rendering armed resistance, was a freestyle wrestler and had recently won the title of champion of Azerbaijan. His relatives assert that he had been kidnapped by unidentified persons three days before his.

One of Dugzaev’s relatives, who preferred to stay anonymous, told to the “Kavkaz-Uzel” correspondent that Arthur became another victim of extrajudicial executions committed by bloody Kadirov regime in Chechnya.

“Together with his family Arthur left Chechnya back in 1999, after the start of active warfare. He was a bit more than ten. In all these years he only once visited Chechnya. He lived in Baku, went in for freestyle wrestling and was a promising athlete. Recently he became a champion of Azerbaijan,” said the source. According to his story, Duzgaev came to Chechnya just to visit his relatives and to learn about prospects of continuing his professional wrestler’s career in Chechnya.

The source asserts that three days before Arthur was declared a militant, liquidated at rendering armed resistance, he had been kidnapped by unknown persons. “He was in his grandmother’s house, when he was invited out by someone; then he disappeared,” said the source and added that the version of puppet regime in Chechnya looks improbable, as the athlete never had any firearms.

The relative has added that Arthur Dugzaev’s body had traces of torture, and that gang members of puppet Kadirov warned his relatives not to make the event public under threat of punishment. According to his story, similar cases in Chechnya are frequent; and one of the reasons of such incidents is that mobsters of bloody regime are remunerated for every liquidated militant.
