Paramedic beaten up in Makhachkala demands to punish law enforcers
Ratmir Sovzikhanov, who was beaten up on September 26, during mass detentions in Makhachkala, wrote an application about a crime committed against him. The ambulance paramedic himself had to go to hospital for treatment.
The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that on September 26, law enforcers beat up Sovzikhanov, 27, when he was escorting a patient in an ambulance in Makhachkala, where at that time participants in an anti-mobilization action were being detained. Sovzikhanov was taken to the police station, but after the intervention of his hospital bosses, he was released. Doctors diagnosed him with a brain concussion.
According to Sovzikhanov, his condition did not improve; and on September 29, he had to return to hospital. "I have headaches, I don't sleep well at night, tinnitus sometimes bothers me, I can't look at the sun – my eyes hurt, and nausea bothers me," he said, as the "Chernovik" outlet reports.
The paramedic has clarified that he decided to submit an application because he saw no reaction to what had happened to him. "I hoped that they would come to apologize, but no one has come," the outlet quotes Ratmir as saying.
