Memorial/Chechen.org: Imran beaten, but alive

18 March 2003

Dear colleagues and friends,

Human Rights Center “Memorial” is pleased to inform that today at about 5 a.m. Imran Ezhiev was ‘thrown out’in the field near village Berkat Yurt, the Chechen Republic. Imran is beaten but alive! We would like to thank everyone who responded to our call for help and took part in his fate. We have visited Imran in his home and gladly deliver the words of gratitude from Imran, his wife and their four kids to all those who have called, written and simply sympathized with their trouble these days.
