The problem is evident
On Wednesday evening or on Thursday night in St. Petersburg on the Vantovo bridge across the Duderhof Canal, unknown people drew a large portrait of Colonel of the Russian Army Yuri Budanov, convicted of the murder of Chechen girl, Elsa Kungaeva. This was reported in the VK group "Transport collapse for residents of Krasnoye Selo". Next to the portrait depicts the Order of Courage, which Budanov was deprived by court decision.
Thus, the authors of Graffiti responded to the initiative of the Governor of the city of Georgy Poltavchenko to assign the name of the first chapter of the Russian administration of Chechnya Akhmat Kadyrov, who, before his betrayal, was the muft of the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria and supported the country's armed struggle against the Russian occupation.
Meanwhile, Fontanka.ru notes that graffiti appeared not on the bridge over the channel, which is supposed to be named in honor of Kadyrov, but on the neighboring one.
The Poltavchenko initiative to name the bridge across Duderhofka by the name Kadyrov, formalized by the decision of the city toponymic commission , caused the indignation of the Petersburgers. On the Change.org platform, the collection of signatures under the petition against this name of the bridge continues. As of 14 hours of Moscow time on June 9, the document collected over 86 thousand signatures. On Monday, a coordinated rally against the initiative of the authorities, gathered about 1000 people ( 
At the same time, the motivations of different opponents of the Kadyrov bridge differ. The democratic opposition indicates that Kadyrov had nothing to do with St. Petersburg, and the initiative Poltavchenko is a demonstration of loyalty to the son of Kadyrov, the current head of Chechnya Ramzan Kadyrov. Meanwhile, nationalist citizens, in support of their position, note that Kadyrov maintained a war against Russia before his betrayal, and some are not satisfied with the very fact of the name of the Chechen.
A similar position was expressed in the open letter of Poltavchenko film director Alexander Sokurov. “Until this moment, neither politics nor historians have figured out the nature of the events that took place in Chechnya,” he wrote. “But one thing is clear: it was a rebellion against Russia.”
On the night of March 27, 2000, Budanov, the commander of the 160th Guards Tank Regiment, abducted an 18-year-old local resident-schoolgirl Elsa Kungaev in the Chechen village of Tangi. Bring the girl to the military unit, he subjected her to torture, and then strangled her. Initially, Budanov was also charged with the rape of Kungaeva, but then this charge was removed from him.
On July 25, 2003, the North Caucasus District Military Court sentenced Budanov to 10 years of strict regime under articles on exceeding official powers, abduction of man and murder. Also, the convicted person was deprived of the title of colonel and the Order of Courage. The former colonel was taken to serve the term in IK-3 in Dimitrovgrad, Ulyanovsk Region. The governor of this region was then General Vladimir Shamanov, a former commander Budanov. On January 15, 2009, the former colonel was released on parole.
On the afternoon of June 10, 2011, Budanov was shot dead on Komsomolsky Prospekt in the center of Moscow. In May 2013, on charges of murder, Chechen Yusup Temerkhanov was convicted. He received 15 years of strict regime. At the same time, Temerhanov’s involvement in the crime has not been virtually proven.
