The soldier asked Melikov to return his mother's land plot to him.

A participant in the military operations in Ukraine recorded a video message to the President of the Russian Federation and the Head of Dagestan, Sergei Melikov, asking for the return of land allocated to his late mother.

As reported by the "Caucasian Knot," in mid-January, Dagestani military personnel in the special operation zone in Ukraine recorded a video message to the Head of the Republic, Sergei Melikov, demanding the resumption of construction on their homes and the return of money to those affected by the developer's actions.

The video message from a participant in the military operation in Ukraine to the President of Russia and the Head of Dagestan, Sergei Melikov, was posted on February 2 on the Telegram channel "Tut Dagestan," which has 255,000 subscribers. By 1:45 a.m. Moscow time today, the video had garnered more than 14,300 views.

"I would like to address the President of the Russian Federation and the head of Dagestan. I, Takhir Kurbanovich Kazikhanov, am a serviceman of the 155th Separate Marine Brigade. I have been in the combat zone since the beginning of the Second Military Operation," the soldier says in the video.

According to the soldier, his late mother had a legally allocated plot of land in the town of Dagestanskiye Ogni. The former city authorities rescinded the decree allocating the land and, at the same time, transferred the plot to the daughter of the deputy head of the administration.

"I ask for your help in sorting out this injustice and restoring the rule of law," the serviceman concluded.

As of 1:45 a.m. Moscow time, there were no comments on the website of the head of the government of Dagestan, nor the Dagestanskiye Ogni administration, regarding the appeal of the SVO participant to Melikov.

"Caucasian Knot" reported that servicemen from Dagestan participating in the SVO periodically record video messages to the republic's authorities asking them to resolve various social and domestic issues. Specifically, on March 5, a video message with complaints about inflated prices for school meals and corruption in the purchase of housing for orphans was published by participants in a special military operation from the Tsuntinsky District of Dagestan. At the end of September, SVO participants complained to Melikov about the lack of sewage in Khasavyurt. Sergei Melikov promised in March that the actions of those attempting to manipulate participants in the military operation by sending them messages asking them to record a video message to the authorities will be harshly suppressed. Appeals from SVO participants in Dagestan to the authorities are prompted by numerous problems in the republic and remain one of the ways to gain the attention of officials. Despite Melikov's statement that combatants are recording messages as a result of "manipulation," he will have to respond to them, analysts noted.

During a direct line on November 27, Dagestan head Sergei Melikov sidestepped pressing issues and gave only vague, convenient answers to questions raised, residents of the republic noted, noting that they were expecting clarification about constant electricity and water outages, burning landfills, and rising prices for housing and communal services and transportation.
