According to investigators, on August 5, 2010, unidentified law enforcers "with no legal grounds" took a 27-year-old resident of Ingushetia away from his house and brought him to an administrative building where they "illegally detained him during five days, used physical violence against him and demanded from him to confess to commission of crimes, " reports the press service of the ICRF's Investigating Department for the Republic for Ingushetia.

"They failed to obtain from the victim his confession, took him to the outskirts of the rural settlement of Nesterovskoe in the Sunzha District of the republic and released him," reported officials from the ICRF's Investigating Department for Ingushetia.
