Security officials have stated that they have no claims against Prisyazhnyuk's wife.

Kirill Prisyazhnyuk's wife, Sabihat, confirmed that he was transferred from Makhachkala to St. Petersburg in connection with a 20-year-old case. Security forces have no complaints against Sabihat, who was previously taken away for questioning.

As reported by "Caucasian Knot," Kirill (Muslim) Prisyazhnyuk has not been released after five days of administrative arrest in Makhachkala, and his wife, Sabihat, was taken away for questioning after a search on Friday evening. Today it became known that Prisyazhnyuk was arrested in St. Petersburg for the murder of a woman in 2006.

Prisyazhnyuk's wife, Sabikhat, confirmed the news of his new arrest on Saturday, May 30. She later learned that her husband had been taken to St. Petersburg.

‎"On Saturday, my lawyer and I filed a kidnapping report. When they filed the report, they were told he had been detained, but they couldn't tell us where he was. The Main Investigative Directorate for St. Petersburg, where my lawyer called, suspecting he might have been taken there, said he wasn't listed there. Then his mother called from St. Petersburg and said he had contacted her: he had been detained and was in St. Petersburg," she said.

Sabihat declined to comment on the preceding events, including her interrogation, noting that the security forces had no complaints against her.

A source for the "Caucasian Knot" in St. Petersburg, speaking on condition of anonymity, confirmed that Prisyazhnyuk has been detained and is in custody in the city.

"He has a lawyer. I understand that the lawyer will speak directly with the investigator and with Kirill. I don't have any other legal information, but the fact that he was detained in a case for which the statute of limitations may have expired seems strange," the source said.

As a reminder, in 2016, a Chechen court sentenced Kirill Prisyazhnyuk to four years in prison on charges of assisting a local resident in traveling to Syria to join a terrorist organization. It was reported at the time that Prisyazhnyuk was recruited by the Islamic State, a terrorist organization banned in Russia, in 2014 while being held in the Kresty pretrial detention center in St. Petersburg.

In June 2014, Prisyazhnyuk, as a member of a neo-Nazi group, was sentenced to three years in prison for ethnically motivated murders and attempted murders of people from the North Caucasus. Following the verdict, Kirill Prisyazhnyuk, who had already served his three-year sentence in pretrial detention, was released from custody in the courtroom.
