Reporters have presented Islam Kadyrov's visit to the investigator as something resonant; however, there is no evidence of the significance of this event, Aslanbek, an activist, has noted.

"For Islam Kadyrov, this whole story of torture, threats and blackmailing people will end happily," Salavdi, a Grozny resident, is sure.

Sultan, a Grozny resident, has treated the video as "a performance." "He calmly goes to the investigators and just as calmly goes out of there," he has noted.
