An inspection of the apartment of Nikolay and Larisa Kosov is underway, in which 5 people participate. Law enforcers confiscate believers' laptops, phones and personal records. At this time, Larisa's daughter is also at home. After that, the three believers are taken for interrogation to the Center for Combating Extremism. They enjoy the right not to testify against themselves and their loved ones. The interrogation is being conducted by investigators Umar Salpogarov and Sergey Dolzhenko.
Major of Justice R. N. Tazhikenov, senior investigator of the investigation department of the FSB of Russia for the Karachay-Cherkess Republic, opened a criminal case against Nikolay and Larisa Kosov. They are accused of "participation in the activities of a religious association, in respect of which the court made an enforceable decision to liquidate it in connection with the implementation of extremist activities."
The investigator summons the Kosovs for questioning and presents them with a decision to bring them into custody. During the interrogation, the investigator asks if the couple know Albert Batchaev, whom he charged with extremism in 2020. Spouses are released on recognizance agreement.
