"Purges" are conducted in Chechnya as before

"Purges" are conducted in Grozny, Gudermes, Argun, and other settlements by officers of the Chechen OMON (militia platoon for special purposes) and the republican department for struggle against organized crime, with a minimum of Russian soldiers' participation.

Detentions take place. Thus, several young people were arrested as a result of a passport-checking operation in the Chechen capital's dormitory named after Kirov.
