Local sources have reported that two male civilians were abducted by Russian agents and armed thugs from the pro-Russian regime in the Russian occupied Chechen Republic of Ichkeria.

According to the reports, on September 19, armed Kadyrovites who belong to the Akhmad Kadyrov Second Road Patrol Regiment, as well as officers from the Federal Security Services (FSB) organized a joint punishment operation in the district of Shali. As a result, two male civilians, born in 1987 and 1988, were abducted on the outskirts of the village of Mesker-Yurt.

The hostages were accused of providing food to the Chechen mujahedeen since the beginning of March 2011. The hostages were taken to a detention center in Argun, but their fates are unknown.
