The MEPs debates on the case of Zarema Musaeva in Chechnya. In January 2022, Zarema Musaeva was violently abducted from a different region of Russia and placed in pre-trial detention in Chechnya and she was sentenced to 5,5 years in prison in July 2023. The Parliament strongly condemns the politically-motivated detention of Zarema Musaeva and urges the Russian authorities, specifically in the Chechen Republic, to immediately release her and drop all the charges brought against her.
