This document is a formal statement from Akhmed Saidovich Isaev to State Duma Deputy Sergei Kovalyov, detailing a violent raid on his fish processing workshop in Moscow on August 8, 2000. The raid occurred shortly after the Pushkinskaya Square explosion and involved individuals in masks and camouflage who allegedly beat employees and interrogated Isaev about the location of explosives and a man named 'Abdula'. Isaev claims he was tortured with plastic bags placed over his head to induce suffocation before being treated for bruises at the Sklifosovsky Institute. He requests Kovalyov's intervention with the FSB and Ministry of Internal Affairs to stop ongoing harassment and mysterious surveillance calls. Isaev explicitly denies any connection to Chechen militants or explosive substances, despite what he claims is incorrect media representation of his activities.
