Ramzan Kadyrov met the defendant in the case of the burning of the Koran Nikita Zhuravl, who was beaten by his 15-year-old son Adam.

Zhuravel said that he wanted to study and accept Islam, but the head of Chechnya did not believe him, noting that he was saying "not from the heart": "The eyes are looking somewhere wrong." "This is a pronounced provocateur and saboteur who acted in the style of European special services," Kadyrov wrote. Baza writes that the video was filmed in the same room where Adam beat Zhuravel. Two months after that, Kadyrov's son was awarded the title of Hero of Chechnya.
