Analysts pointed out the risks of a public appeal by a mother separated from her children to Aishat Kadyrova.

In case the father refuses to allow the mother to communicate with the children, elders and representatives of the clergy may intervene, but they are not always willing to listen. The daughter of the head of Chechnya, Aishat Kadyrova, also has limited influence on the situation. The very fact of appealing to the Kadyrov family can lead to either a resolution of the situation or consequences for the woman who made the appeal.

As reported by "Caucasian Knot", a resident of Chechnya, Madina Makhamashova, appealed to Aishat Kadyrova with a complaint that her ex-husband has not allowed her to see and communicate with their daughter for two years, despite the court-established order for communication with the child.

A resident of Chechnya has put herself at risk by recording an appeal

The president of the Center for the Study of Global Issues of Modernity and Regional Problems "Caucasus. World. Development" Said Sirazhudina believes that there is no unequivocal approach to influencing fathers in such situations.

"Fathers can be different. Some do not listen to anyone. Some can be convinced. Here, an individual approach is needed. But in general, if we generalize, which is very difficult, it is clear that the influence of elders and religious structures can be high. They are usually influential. But there are limitations to their capabilities," she noted.

Despite her status, she cannot intervene everywhere

According to the researcher, numerous examples confirm the high status, influence, and capabilities of Aishat Kadyrova.

"Many women are grateful to her. She has really helped. But she is a woman. Therefore, despite her status, she cannot intervene everywhere. And it is difficult to predict. But I am sure that, as a woman, she has compassion and a sincere desire to help," Sirazhudina believes.

In her opinion, the risks in public appeals can vary.

"As well as the likelihood that the request will reach the addressee. Sometimes we see a quick response. Sometimes, on the contrary, a person is somehow punished for the appeal. But for mothers, there is often no other way. A mother is ready to take all risks because she has nothing left to lose. The meaning of life for most women is family and children," Sirazhudina explained.

She believes that courts can generally make adequate decisions on this issue.

"The situation with the courts is simpler. Judges often follow the law. But the situation with bailiffs is the most complicated. They try to evade assistance. This is not only the case in Chechnya. And this issue requires resolution and serious efforts. Attention needs to be drawn to these shortcomings, women and victims need to unite and appeal to the Constitutional Court to strengthen the legislative framework and limit the possibilities of ignoring. This problem is too widespread," Sirazhudina concluded.

Such cases are unlikely to be used before elections

There is no need for him to increase his popularity during the election campaign. Elections are a farce. In any scenario, they will draw him 100 percent.

A human rights activist, familiar with the situation in Chechnya, believes that this appeal could end unpredictably.

The Chechen Election Commission registered formal opponents of Kadyrov
Ismail Denilkhanov and Khalid Nakayev have been registered as candidates for the elections of the head of Chechnya after Ramzan Kadyrov.

"There is no need for him to increase his popularity during the election campaign. Elections are a farce. In any scenario, they will draw him 100 percent. He may use it just for the popularity of his daughter. And the election results are obvious, at least because he has no candidates from the Kremlin as opponents in the elections," he pointed out.

I do not think that Ramzan Kadyrov will use this case, as he traditionally adheres to a demonstratively masculine logic.

Member of the Adam Smith Council Sergiy Boyko also believes that such an appeal will not be significant for the election campaign.

"In an election campaign, any loud information reason can be used, including this case of a woman being denied access to her daughter. However, I do not think that Ramzan Kadyrov will use this case, as he traditionally adheres to a demonstratively masculine logic," he believes.

"Caucasian Knot" also reported that in the republics of the North Caucasus, and in particular, in Chechnya, the issue of women's rights remains relevant. For example, the story of the death of Madina Umaeva from Gudermes caused a wide public outcry. Umaeva died on June 12, 2020, in her husband's house and was buried at night. Madina's husband claimed that she died after falling down the stairs during an epileptic seizure. According to Umaeva's relatives, there were often quarrels between her and her husband. Umaeva's body was exhumed on June 20, 2020, and three days later, Ramzan Kadyrov intervened in the case. He stated that Umaeva's relatives had no evidence that her husband was guilty of her death. After that, Umaeva's mother apologized for her words about her daughter's violent death.
