Blogger Tumso Abdurakhmanov and his
brother claimed that the Chechen authorities had passed a blood feud warning to
their relatives in the village of Starye Atagi. Armed men appeared in the
village after the dispute between Tumso and the speaker of the Chechen
parliament in a voice chat.
Mokhmad Abdurakhmanov, a Tumso’s
brother, said that a top-ranking Chechen official “sent dozens of people to the
village of Starye Atagi, a my mother’s ancestral village where her brothers
live, and threatened them: ‘If you do not stop your man within two days, then
we will return, we will declare a blood feud on you, and we will wipe up you’.”
Mokhmad Abdurakhmanov emphasizes that those threats
contradict the rules of blood feud. (Emphasis
added.)
“In the Chechen traditions, there has never been such a
practice for the mother’s side to be held responsible for the actions of a
person,” Mokhmad Abdurakhmanov explained in
the video “Iudov threatens our maternal relatives”, posted on the
“AbdurakhmanOFF” YouTube channel on September 26.
Tumso Abdurakhmanov noted that about
30 armed people appeared in the village of Starye Atagi.
He associates the threats against his
relatives with the recent dispute between him and Magomed Daudov. “I think the
repressions against my relatives were a logical continuation of our
conversation with Daudov in the voice chat. He openly announced that he would
make my relatives answer for my words,” stated Tumso Abdurakhmanov as quoted
today by the “Kavkaz.Realii”.
