A native of Chechnya has been denied transfer to a colony closer to his family for more than a year
Despite the court's decision, Albek Dakhtaev, a convict from Chechnya, is denied transfer to a colony closer to his family's place of residence. For many years he was kept in remote places of detention, subjected to abuse. This is stated on the website of the “Civic Assistance” project. In December 2022, the Zamoskvoretsky Court of Moscow declared illegal the FSIN’s refusal to transfer Dakhtaev to a colony closer to Chechnya. This decision came into force in January 2023.
