Malika Djikaeva, a blogger from North Ossetia, was planted on with drugs in order to punish her for her shocking videos in a hijab, her relatives assert, complaining that Chechen advocates are ready to take up Djikaeva's case only for a huge fee.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that Djikaeva was detained in Grozny. According to a source from the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MIA), she was arrested for two months for drug possession. Some Instagram users, dissatisfied with her video clips, were happy with her criminal prosecution.

Zarina, Malika's sister said that the latter went to Grozny on the proposal to advertise on the Instagram; and was detained there.

Zarina has noted that since childhood Malika Djikaeva has been a Category 2 invalid and has never taken any illegal preparations or drugs.

After the resonant video clip with a machine gun, law enforcers tortured Malika, another sister of her, named Karina, claims, adding that earlier, the wife of one influential person from Chechnya had threatened Djikaeva.

Madina, a Malika' friend, who was with her during the detention, is also sure that drugs had been planted on Malika.
