The head of Chechnya Ramzan Kadyrov commented in Telegram reports that students under threat of expulsion forced to go to the football matches in Grozny, “Akhmad”.
“Earmarked only for poor studies, and then are given time to fix. No one is forcing you and not herding to the stadium. And you, journalists try to make, the whole world will scream,” — wrote Kadyrov.
Earlier Tuesday, 26 September, the General Director of football club Ahmed aydamirov also said the Agency “R-Sport” that appeared in the media information is not true. “It is nonsense that the stadium is tied to student tickets. We have that people in football do not go, I do not like football? Is under pressure it is possible for someone to drive [to the stadium]? Well, one time the pound, and then what?” said the moat.
Monday on the website, “the Caucasus.Realities” (“Radio Freedom”) has published an article which referred to the complaints of students from several universities of the Chechen state University, Grozny state oil technical University and the Chechen pedagogical University. According to students, let them go home after school and ordered night to come to the stadium, which will host the match between “Ahmad” and the Kazan “Rubin”.
The students were told that otherwise, they threatened to deduct the stadium for each institution selected stands, place them linked to numbers of student cards, so it was easy to calculate those who didn’t come.
September 25 “Ahmad” won “Rubin” in the match of the 11th round of Russian football Premier League. The meeting was held in Grozny at the stadium named after Sultan Bilimhanov and ended with the score 1:0 in favor of the hosts.
