Human rights organisations confirmed the information that Gay People are being Tortured To Death In the Russian Republic of Chechen Concentration Camps. "For several weeks now, a brutal campaign against LGBT people has been sweeping through Chechnya. Law enforcement and security agency officials under control of the ruthless head of the Chechen Republic, Ramzan Kadyrov, have rounded up dozens of men on suspicion of being gay, torturing and humiliating the victims," a report by Human Rights Watch states. "Some of the men have forcibly disappeared. Others were returned to their families barely alive from beatings. At least three men apparently have died since this brutal campaign began." 40 years of modern Chechen history told in brief to try and understand the political background. Sign Amnesty International petition and help to call out the Chechen government on the abductions and killings of men believed to be gay in Chechnya. Anyone guilty or complicit in such crimes must be brought to justice. Amnesty International: https://www.amnesty.org.uk/
