A third lawsuit has been filed against Pugacheva following her comments about Dudayev.

Vitaly Borodin, head of the Federal Project on Security and Anti-Corruption (FBPK), has filed a third lawsuit to defend the honor and dignity of singer Alla Pugacheva following her high-profile interview. The latest lawsuit was registered in the Odintsovo City Court in the Moscow Region.

As reported by "Caucasian Knot," in an interview with Ekaterina Gordeeva*, Alla Pugacheva called General Dzhokhar Dudayev an intelligent and decent man and apologized to his widow for not being able to do anything to keep him alive. "I knew Dzhokhar Dudayev. He was such a decent, decent, intelligent man. A beautiful man," Pugacheva stated. State Duma Deputy Biysultan Khamzayev asked the head of the Ministry of Justice to investigate Alla Pugacheva's statements for extremism. Lawyer Alexander Treshchev appealed to the Prosecutor General's Office with a request to investigate Pugacheva's statements for terrorism.

Dzhokhar Dudayev - Major General of the Air Force, who led the movement for Chechnya's secession from the Soviet Union and served as Supreme Commander-in-Chief during the First Chechen War. He was killed on April 22, 1996, near the village of Gekhi-Chu. According to one version, when Dudayev contacted State Duma Deputy K.N. Borovoy, his satellite phone signal was intercepted, allowing Russian aircraft to launch a targeted homing missile. Dudayev is survived by three children (a daughter and two sons). His wife, Alla Fedorovna Dudayeva, the daughter of a Soviet officer, is an artist, poet (pen name: Aldest), and publicist. She is the author of the books "The Million and First: Dzhokhar Dudayev" (2002) and "The Chechen Wolf: My Life with Dzhokhar Dudayev" (2005), and co-author of the collection "Ballad of Jihad" (2003), according to a biographical note on Dzhokhar Dudayev published by the "Caucasian Knot.".

"A lawsuit to protect his honor, dignity, and business reputation has been registered in court," the documents state. The plaintiff is Vitaly Borodin, head of the Federal Project on Security and the Fight against Corruption (FPBC), and the defendant is Alla Pugacheva. The lawsuit has been left pending, RIA Novosti reports.

Earlier, Borodin announced that he had created a petition to strip Alla Pugacheva of her title of People's Artist of Russia, the agency clarified.

As a reminder, two Chechen leaders immediately responded to Alla Pugacheva's comments about Dzhokhar Dudayev: first, the Minister of National Policy, External Relations, and Information, Akhmed Dudayev, and then personally, the head of the republic, Ramzan Kadyrov. Ramzan Kadyrov advised her "not to provoke an entire nation."
