Moscow: Amnesty International on Wednesday called on Russia to investigate the rights situation in Chechnya and "immediately" release an anti-torture activist’s mother, who was arrested and forcibly brought back to the tightly-controlled republic.
Zarema Musayeva, the mother of three exiles critical of strongman Ramzan Kadyrov, was detained by Chechen forces in mid-January in Nizhny Novgorod -- a city 1,800 kilometres north of Chechnya.
