Biographies of Chechen leaders

The status quo that we have in Chechnya today is military administration, military people control it. In this sense, parallels with the Kremlin are interesting, because there are also mainly security officials, now the security council is becoming the most important body in making domestic political decisions, because in principle, the policy is built on security today, ”says Ekaterina Sokiryanskaya, the head of the Center for Analysis and Prevention of Conflicts.

However, in Chechnya herself, Kadyrov’s addictions from his surroundings are not seen in Russian legislation. There is a concept of “conflict of interests” in the civil service - it is understood that people who are connected by personal relations should not work in such positions, where their personal relations can interfere with the objective decision of the decision. The definition of a conflict of interests surrounded himself by people of his generation, immigrants from his village for the reason that they owe him to everything that they have and this is a guarantor of their devotion, the former leader of the Chechen opposition Ahmed Zakaev: "The people of his generation actually sincerely admire him.

He is both authority for them, and they are afraid of him. Kadyrov surrounded himself with people with blood -related people or people from childhood who owe him to everyone. He has a small category of people in whom he can rely and, of course, knowing that they are not enough, he cherishes them, ”said Zakayev. The Russian BBC Service compiled a detailed map of the power arrangement in Chechnya.

The research methodology is large rearrangements about“ dear brothers ”, as Kadyrov himself calls all the people close to him, and it became known on Friday that the prime minister-minister is a minister. Chechnya Abubakar Edelgeriev, a fellow soldier Kadyrov, was appointed to the post of adviser to the President of the Russian Federation. According to Edelgeriev, he treats his purpose very well and wants to show himself from the good side: “I know that the presidential team is very strong, and I want to, of course, fit,” he added.

The mayor of Grozny Muslim Khuchiev was appointed to the freed post of prime minister, and the head of the capital, the head of the capital, proposed to give to his nephew Ibrahim Skriev. ISU Tumkhadzhiev, who is also a distant relative of the Kadyrov, the head of the region nominated the first deputy prime minister. And last week the head of the Kurchaloevsky district of Chechnya was the son of his brother Ramzan, Khamzat Kadyrov.

Kadyrov does not hide what often appoints people with whom he is associated with personal ties. He often, when prescribed, uses the wording “I have known this person for many years” or “from early childhood”. This phrase is a faithful marker that a person enjoys Kadyrov’s special trust. Who else enjoys his special trust, how many relatives, fellow villagers and colleagues Kadyrov work in Chechnya, and how influential are they all?

The Kadyrov confidence circle of the BBC Russian service has chosen 18 key figures in executive, legislative power, in power structures, in business and in the field of international relations of the region that make the most important decisions or affect their adoption. Despite the fact that the head of Chechnya has many relatives, among those people who make decisions and with whom Kadyrov consults, there are not many representatives of the Kadyrov surname.

Kadyrov himself explains this by the fact that his relatives do not have enough merits for making high posts: “From the fact that you have the surname Kadyrov, you won’t get anywhere, my friend, if you have no merits. We, Kadyrov, have a lot of people who need to be arranged for work. They can be made ministers, deputies, heads, generals, but they have no merits. The only one who has one who has one has the only one who has one.

Merit, ”Kadyrov said at one of the meetings in Grozny. In a conversation with the Russian BBC service, the Minister of Press Umarov said that if Kadyrov accepts the people of his surname in the near circle, the responsibility of them lies greater than the other members of the team: “The closer he is on his related line, the more responsibility is on him, the more he is asking him,” Dzhambulat Umarov explains.

The great confidence of the leader of Chechnya has been enjoyed by those who have been in the team since the beginning of the 10ths when the head of the administration, and then the president of Chechnya, was the father of Ramzan Akhmat-Haji Kadyrov. All the BBCs surveyed by insiders and experts attribute these people to the nearest Circle of Kadyrov.Also, residents of the region of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ruslan Alkhanov, the head of the Council of Economic and Public Safety of Chechnya Vakhit Usmaev, the head of the lineup police of Ali Tagirov, and others, form the Minister of Internal Affairs of the Council of Economic and Public Safety, and others.

Most of them come from the village of Kadyrov Centers. According to a study conducted by the BBC, during the period from October to April, Delimkhanov appeared in the personnel of Chechen television about 60 times. Daudov flashes on the TV screen more often - about 70 times in six months. At most events with Kadyrov, they both stand next to him, but do not take direct participation in the event.

The head of the region often appoints them responsible for the construction of a new facility or for the execution of his instructions. So, for example, Delimkhanov oversaw the construction of a new building of the railway station in Gudermes, and Daudov was instructed to monitor the situation on the roads of Chechnya. Vismuradov over the past six months appeared next to Kadyrov at almost every meeting and event.

He, unlike Delimkhanov and Daudov, does not sit at meetings with the head of Chechnya, but is always nearby. Adam Delimkhanov and his brothers Delimkhanov, together with his brothers, joined the team of Akhmat-Khadzhi Kadyrov and fought on the side of the federal forces in the beginning of the 10ths and occupied various posts in the power departments of Chechnya. Since the year, Delimkhanov is a State Duma deputy from United Russia.

Delimkhanov in the Duma is a rare guest, basically he comes to major events like the message of the president. In the republic he is known as responsible for Chechens living outside Chechnya. Local media write about this, and the deputy himself often holds meetings with Chechens from other regions of Russia.

The deputy’s native brothers also hold high posts in law enforcement agencies. The head of Chechnya himself calls him a brother, but he calls all the people dear to him. Typically, Kadyrov describes in detail how he is connected with one or another relative, Kadyrov does not speak about kinship with Delimkhanov. Outside of Chechnya, the deputy is recalled primarily in connection with the story with the Golden Pistol, which fell out of his pocket in the State Duma building during a fight with another deputy Alexei Zhuravlev, as well as with the murder of Hero of Russia Sulim Yamadayev in Dubai in the year, in which they were interested in the Dubai police.

The head of the torture prevention committee, Igor Kalyapin calls the deputy from Chechnya "the main Kadyrovets of Moscow." According to Kalyapin, Delimkhanov is a person whom Kadyrov called his successor. By the phone number, which is indicated as the number of Adam Delimkhanov, another State Duma deputy from Chechnya Magomed Selimkhanov answers. According to him, people who surround the head of the region are professionals in their field, who showed themselves properly.

Selimkhanov says that he met Kadyrov in the year and went from an assistant to the State Duma deputy: “I was engaged in youth policy and he somehow paid attention to me and today I would consider the greatest honor to be a close relative of Ramzan Akhmatovich,” the deputy admitted. There are several versions of the story of how he received his nickname, and the most popular - the one that Daudov himself said.

According to him, for the first meeting with Ramzan Kadyrov, Daudov came in a white shirt and suit. Kadyrov then noticed that he looked like an English lord. During the second military campaign, Daudov was on the side of the militants. When the father of Ramzan Kadyrov announced the amnesty of everyone who crosses the side of the official Chechnya, Daudov took this opportunity.

For many years he worked in senior positions in the power structures of Chechnya. In Ramzan Kadyrov, Daudov appointed the head of the administration of the head and government of the region, and heads the main legislative body of Chechnya with Magomed Daudov. The sphere of influence of the speaker does not go beyond the borders of Chechnya. The chairman of the Chechen parliament often appears in stories with human rights activists and journalists who come to Chechnya - he meets them personally.

He is the president of the Chechen football club Akhmat. This position is very responsible and honorable, since the head of Chechnya is a great fan of football and an ardent fan of the Chechen football club. Often plays himself, emotionally reacts when his players win important matches. At the beginning of last year, he published on his Instagram the name, address and home phone of a resident of Kabardino-Balkaria, who left a critical commentary on him, and signed “Well, they sailed?

Another story was widely discussed in the Daudov’s post: in his“ Instagram ”under the heading, how to untie the Caucasian knot“ The speaker of the Chechen parliament called ” I will have a couple of fangs of “wisdom”, but to shorten the language to standard sizes. ”The editor -in -chief of the publication“ Caucasian Knot ”Georgy Swedov took these words as a threat of his safety.In addition to communicating with people who need to be “reasoned”, Daudov is known for a certain degree of influence on law enforcement agencies.

Abuse Vismuradov, Patriot Abuse Vismuradov or Patriot, as he is called in Chechnya - a classmate and childhood friend of the Chechen leader. Joint children's photos of Kadyrov and Vismuradov often appear on pages in social networks of the head of the region. Information that Vismuradov is guaranteed by the family of the head of Chechnya and his family by the BBC was confirmed by the Minister of Press Chechnya Jambulat Umarov: “This is a modest, brave and at the same time very conscientious and kind, a steel warrior, to which the head of the Chechen Republic trusts immensely,” Umarov characterizes him.

Regarding the new duty of the Patriot, the advance of the Akhmat fighting club and its pupils at international and Russian competitions in mixed martial arts. The Akhmat club was created in the year and, according to Kadyrov, should educate the best fighters who will represent Chechnya at international competitions and bring victories. Last year, Vismuradov, together with the fighter of his club, went to the UFC tournament in Europe, after which a series of publications in the media followed, as well as the appeals of international human rights organizations to the leadership of countries that issued a visa to the closest ally of Kadyrov.

One of the Vismuradov brothers holds a post in the parliament of the republic, the second until recently he headed the Grozny police department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Chechnya, until Kadyrov replaced him with his nephew. According to the chairman of the committee on the prevention of torture by Igor Kalyapin, the positions that occupy Delimkhans, Dauds and Vismurads are not so important, the main thing is what status they have.

Each of these people has an informal status, which directly has nothing to do with their official position. This is just a certain informal support under their status, ”says Kalyapin. But everyone knows that Patriot is Kadyrov’s personal guard. This informal status determines their real position and attitude towards them in Chechen society. The lord is the main security officer in Chechnya, Delimkhanov is the main Kadyrian of Moscow, Patriot is the personal guard of Ramzan.

Everyone knows this. Of the 18 members of the “confidence circle”, eight-security forces, three work outside the region, the rest work in the field of the legislative and executive branch of Chechnya. The answer to the question of why the main people are sitting in the law enforcement, they are quite simple, the experts interviewed, he provides it, and the rest, as he himself told me, will provide us with Vladimir Vladimirovich.

This is nothing but security forces, ”says Kalyapin. The head of the Ministry of Printing of Chechnya Umarov calls the security forces surrounded by Kadyrov by brotherhood, fastened with attacks with the screams of Allahuaacbar against international terror. Kadyrov and publicly pays a lot of attention to the security forces. He explains this by the fact that they prove patriotism at the cost of their life and protect the world in the region.

Kadyrov calls his personal enemies to the life of the employees of the power bloc. Responsible posts in the power block are also distributed between the old team of Kadyrov Sr., their children and relatives. Among the leaders of the power structures of Chechnya are four close friends of Ramzan Kadyrov, two nephews, two associates of his father Akhmat -Haji Kadyrov, three relatives, nine villagers of the current head of Chechnya and five relatives of Adam Delimkhanov.

All of them occupy leading positions in the structures of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Chechnya, the Russian Guard in Chechnya and the power structures of federal significance. The author of the photo, TASS Signature for the photo, Dmitry Medvedev with classmates and villagers Ramzan Kadyrov, who occupy the leading posts in the security forces of Chechnya, in addition to the regional law enforcement agencies in Chechnya, 18 military units of the Ministry of Defense are listed.

Now all of them are attached or are in the stage of joining the united strategic command of the Southern Military District. According to lawyer Peter Zaikin, who took part in the Second Chechen campaign, it often happens in the region and meets former colleagues, military personnel live in the region as an island - with local security officials and authorities practically do not communicate.

Executive and legislative power: a large family of 73 people in the government and parliament of Chechnya, leading positions occupy 19 relatives and 14 villagers Kadyrov. Abubakar Edelgeriev, who until recently held the post of chairman of the Chechen government, was among Kadyrov’s proxies for negotiations at the federal level.
