June 2, 2023

“At about 20:00, senior police lieutenant Akhmedov arrived at his home at the address of registration. As indicated in the explanation that was taken from my parents, the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Republic of Crimea sent a district police officer Akhmedov guided by Art. 144 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of the Russian Federation in connection with the verification of a report of a crime, as well as to verify whether I am currently at the specified registration address. When asked what crime they are talking about and whether there was a fact of this crime, Akhmedov replied that there was no fact of a crime”,- Akimova wrote.

Before that, the police visited the Akimov family house to have a conversation with Elmaz, and in December 2022, an employee of the Center for Combating Extremism came to Elmaz allegedly to check the place of residence of some people.
