By Asya Umarova in Grozny On September 15, 2004, Kazbek was arrested in his home city of Grozny by masked men from the security services. The 23-year-old, who was a part-time student working as a policeman at the time, was taken away and later signed a confession under duress. Kazbek, whose family did not want his surname to be used, was sentenced to ten years' imprisonment for "membership of an armed gang", and is currently in a high-security prison in the Sverdlovsk region in central Russia. As a result he has never seen his son, the younger of his two children. He started working for the Chechen police after returning home in 2001. He had been away to avoid the conflict, spending the time earning a history degree and working ... >> full

Alexander Solzhenitsyn in his book "GULAG Archipelago" gave a brilliant characteristic of Chechen people: " ... a nation that did not submit to the psychology of obedience, - not loners, not rioters, but the nation as a whole.
