On April 7, the “Project” online edition released an investigation into the real estate owned by a spouse of Ramzan Kadyrov and Fatima Khazueva, a beauty contest finalist, who enjoyed the favour of the leader of Chechnya. Fatima Khazueva owns a luxurious mansion in the centre of Grozny. Along with the wife of the leader of Chechnya, Fatima Khazueva also owns apartments in elite residential complexes in Moscow, the “Project” online edition reports in its investigation. The press secretary for Russian President Vladimir Putin states that the Kremlin has more reliable information on the income of regional leaders than journalists have and that is why the posts about the Ramzan Kadyrov’s property do not give rise to checks.
