State Duma Deputy Adam Delimkhanov was wounded in the war zone in Ukraine. This was reported by the Zvezda TV channel with reference to the press service of the State Duma.
“State Duma deputy Adam Delimkhanov was wounded, but he is alive. This was reported to Zvezda by the press service of the State Duma, thus refuting the reports of some Telegram channels about the death of Delimkhanov, ”the channel says .
Some time later, the following message appeared on Ramzan Kadyrov's Telegram channel:
“I myself can’t find Adam Delimkhanov in any way. He does not get in touch. I ask Ukrainian intelligence to provide information on exactly what place and what positions were hit, so that I can still find my dear BROTHER. I promise a generous reward and I ask you to help.”
Earlier, Ukrainian media reported that he was killed during a shelling in Primorsk in the Zaporozhye region.
On June 1, Delimkhanov posted a video on his channel in which he turned to the founder of Wagner PMC Yevgeny Prigozhin with a proposal to meet and explain what tasks the Chechen unit Akhmat performs. Delimkhanov wrote down his appeal after Prigozhin's statement that he did not understand what the Akhmat unit was doing.
“If something is not clear to you, you can contact me at any time, indicate the time and place. We will explain to you what you don't understand. This time. Secondly, you have already become a blogger and shout to the whole world that we only have problems. We all know how many people you put on the direction of Bakhmut in 7-8 months. <…> Say the place: where, what, when – see you. We will solve any issue face to face with you. Enough already, otherwise the people and our society do not already understand many issues, ”Delimkhanov says in the video.
Recall that in June last year, Delimkhanov said that "the special operation will be completed by the end of the year." This was the first official assessment of the timing of the end of the war by the Russian Federation.
“I think it won’t continue,” Delimkhanov said, answering a question from a news agency employee about when the war would end.
Adam Delimkhanov is the brother of Alimbek Delimkhanov, the commander of the Sever battalion, under whose command three defendants in the case of the murder of Boris Nemtsov served. Earlier, Adam Delimkhanov was wanted by Interpol on suspicion of organizing the murder of Sulim Yamadayev. On July 2, 2014, the United States imposed sanctions on Adam Delimkhanov: according to the US Treasury, the deputy acted in the interests of the leader of the Fraternal Circle criminal group.
