Chechen head Ramzan Kadyrov believes that Ukraine’s intelligence services are an accessory to an attack on Adam Osmaev and the murder of his wife, Amina Okueva, on October 30.
"Ukraine’s intelligence services decided to kill three birds, instead of two, with one stone: get rid of their own, home-grown bandit, distract their western string-pullers’ attention from the anti-government rallies and once again pin the blame on Russia for all their woes," Kadyrov wrote on Telegram.
Kadyrov stressed that "there has never been a ‘Chechen battalion’ in Ukraine." He has no doubts that this allegation is a "myth aimed at creating the appearance of support by Chechens for the criminal Kiev regime." "If owing to the Ukrainian intelligence services Nikiforova met her fate, Osmaev’s fate still remains unknown," TASS cited him as saying.
On October 30, an attempt on the lives of two participants from the Donbass military operation was carried out. Adam Osmaev was injured by the attackers and his wife Amina Okueva was killed. Kadyrov noted that the previous statements by Ukrainian politicians and MPs - who were constantly talking about Natalya Nikiforova (Amina Okueva) as a Chechen fighting for the Banderites - are groundless and that she "has no relation to Chechnya or the Chechen people." The Chechen leader refuted the Ukrainian side’s assumptions about a "Russian trace" in Nikiforova’s murder.
