The leader of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, has promised five million rubles for the “liquidation” and 10 million for the “living capture” of a participant in a video in which a man in military uniform burns the pages of the Koran. The “Caucasian knot” paid attention to Kadyrov’s message.
“I will not limit myself to a dry condemnation of the act of the Ukrainian evil spirits, who recently burned the pages of the Holy Quran. Whenever it happens – today, tomorrow, a year from now, the money will be waiting. And no matter who does it: a platoon, a group, a loner, a neighbor in the trench, the money will be transferred in full, ” writing the leader of Chechnya in his telegram channel.
On the video that Kadyrov published the day before, a man in a military uniform, similar to the uniform of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, is seen lighting a fire with the pages of the Quran.
The Caucasian Knot writes that the video was originally posted on March 15 to user partic55’s TikTok account. After Kadyrov’s reaction, the video was deleted. According to the publication, users of the social network considered this video to be staged, highlighting an unnatural tone of voice, the absence of faces in the frame and the use of Russian words in Ukrainian speech. In particular, one of the participants in the video says, “Boys, can you start a fire? (in Ukrainian “bonfire” – “bagattya”).
One of the leaders of the self-proclaimed Chechen Republic of Ichkeria, Akhmed Zakayev appointed video “provocation of the Russian special services.”
