Dagestani MPH intercepts Kadyrov's initiative in helping sick child

The boy, who complained to Ramzan Kadyrov about Dagestani doctors, is being treated at the expense of the state, the Dagestani Ministry of Public Health (MPH) has stated after Kadyrov's proposal to pay for the boy's treatment.

The head of Chechnya has published the boy's appeal to him in his page on the VKontakte social network on December 22. The boy said that he had cancer; and doctors in Makhachkala "didn't want" to treat him.

Kadyrov responded by writing that the Akhmat Kadyrov Fund would take on the expenses.

In January, the boy will undergo a course of therapy at a Moscow clinic, the press service of the Dagestan MPH wrote on the Instagram.

"We have to write here such posts and talk about what has been done here, because many people present information distortedly," the MPH has stated.
