Chechen Police ‘Kidnap’ Two Brothers in Anti-LGBTQ Crackdown Anna Nemtsova © Provided by The Daily Beast Marcos del Mazo/LightRocket via Getty Images MOSCOW The Islamist insurgency in Chechnya was crushed long ago, but the harsh security services apparatus remained in place. Police routinely round up gay men, and reports of torture are well documented. In a new development, these police have now arrested ethnic Chechen gay men far from Chechnya. Security agents detained two brothers, 17-year-old Ismail Isayev and 20-year-old Salekh Magomadov, in a shelter in Nizhny Novgorod in central Russia earlier this month. The two brothers were active on social media, and posted LGBTQ and Pride symbols.
