Kremlin Silent as Kadyrov's Son Assaults Detainee

Russia's Human Rights Commissioner Tatiana Moskalkova has expressed restrained disapproval of Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov after he shared a video on social media of his son beating a Russian teenager accused of burning the Koran. While Moskalkova stated that the destruction of religious texts should not go unpunished, she emphasized the importance of following legal procedures and holding individuals accountable before the court. Some public figures and members of the Council for Human Rights have called for an investigation into the beating, expressing concerns about the safety of the detainee. Kadyrov's son, Adam, is facing potential punishment if found guilty, according to Kadyrov himself. Russian law enforcement authorities have not yet publicly responded to the video.
