Security forces in Makhachkala did not release Prisyazhnyuk after his arrest ended.

Kirill Prisyazhnyuk has not been released after five days of administrative arrest in Makhachkala, and his wife, Sabikhat, was taken away for questioning after a search.

As reported by "Caucasian Knot," former nationalist Kirill Prisyazhnyuk from St. Petersburg was detained in Makhachkala and placed under administrative arrest for five days. His family was not informed of the reason for his arrest. On May 29, the day his arrest expired, armed security forces attempted to enter the apartment where Prisyazhnyuk's wife and children live.

Security officials did not allow a lawyer who came to the apartment of Kirill (Muslim) Prisyazhnyuk's wife, Sabihat, into the house and he was unable to be present during the search, a Dagestani journalist told the "Caucasian Knot" on condition of anonymity.

"Sabihat's mother was also not allowed in. After the search, the woman was taken away for questioning, which is still ongoing. The security officials were likely not local, not Dagestani," he said.

Prisyazhnyuk was supposed to be released after 7:30 PM Moscow time on May 29, but he was never released. The journalist learned that he was detained again immediately after his release from the detention center.

"When I I drove up to the detention center, and another lawyer was standing there. He was told to come at 7:00 PM and meet him. They didn't explain the details—they said his wife would be arriving and he and her should meet him. He waited until 7:20 PM, couldn't get through to his wife, and left. He said the officers were still there when he left. To avoid attracting attention, I went into the mosque nearby. But when I came out, no one was there: the lawyer hadn't figured it out and left early; the officers and their cars were gone, too. Syazhnyuk managed to call before leaving the detention center and said he was being detained, but it was unclear where they were taking him," he said.
