The head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, posted a video message from his deputy representative in Crimea and Sevastopol, Murad Saidov, who denied rumors about the alleged “corrupt exchange scheme” of Ukrainian nationalist Yulia Paevskaya (Tyra). So, earlier reports began to spread that Tyra, who was captured in Mariupol, was allegedly exchanged for Saidov’s son Adam Gritsenko, who fell into the hands of the Ukrainian military.
Kadyrov writes in his channel that such reports are not true.
According to Kadyrov, Adam Gritsenko is a citizen of Ukraine, and his father confirms that he “is still in captivity in his own country.”
“It is not my prerogative to change Ukrainian citizens to Ukrainian Nazis,” Kadyrov said. “And such issues are not within my competence.”
He “recommended any unscrupulous journalists” who, according to Kaydrov, “are PR on this topic” to show professional ethics and back up the information with facts. By spreading “absolutely false versions, you risk falling under Article 207.3 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation,” Kadyrov concluded.
