Chechen Leader 'Has 1,000 Wedding Guests Questioned After Losing Phone' -- The Guardian
Human rights group says Ramzan Kadyrov, who often posts to Instagram several times a day, mislaid phone at feast
Blame it on Ramzan Kadyrov's well-known Instagram addiction; the strongman leader of Russia's Chechen Republic was apparently so worried when he lost his mobile phone at a wedding that police questioned more than a thousand people into the early hours of the morning in an attempt to find it.
The human rights organisation Memorial, which has documented numerous abuses in the mountainous region of Chechnya including the murder of its own activist there in 2009, said in a statement that the loss of Kadyrov's phone occurred on Saturday at the opening ceremony for the Shira-Yurt museum constructed in the form of a medieval Chechen village. According to his hugely popular Instagram account, the "grandiose holiday" attended by "thousands of residents of the republic" saw Kadyrov meet and dance with elders, size up a shotgun and a cannon and preside over a lavish feast. The event was capped off with a traditional Chechen wedding at which Memorial said Kadyrov gave the young couple 1m rubles (£17,000).
