Zelimkhan Bakaev
- Question
-
To ask Her Majesty's Government what representations they have made to authorities in Chechnya regarding the disappearance of Zelim Bakeav in August 2017.
- Answer
-
The UK remains deeply concerned by the disappearance of Zelim Bakaev and the persecution of many other individuals in Chechnya due to their sexual orientation. Together with our international partners, we continue to raise our serious concerns with the Russian authorities in a number of multilateral fora – including the UN, Council of Europe and the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe for the release and safe return of all those abducted and urging them to investigate fully and bring those responsible to justice.
