Ramazan Ismailov, older brother and coach Magomed Ismailova in a conversation with , commented on the news of the trial involving an MMA fighter.
The Tagansky District Court of Moscow is currently conducting proceedings in the case of an administrative offence under Article 20.3.1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation “Incitement to hatred or enmity, as well as humiliation of human dignity”, in which the defendant is Magomed Ismailov. The fighter will appear in court and faces 15 days of arrest.
Earlier, on his social networks, the athlete criticized the actions of the police during special events in one of the places of worship.
“I didn’t know about this story that there would be a trial, etc. I heard from you. What do I think – Muhammad said what was in his soul. On the one hand, employees [полиции] There have been actions, but we all need to watch our speech.
It didn’t seem to me that he said anything offensive, but have you ever heard harsh words from me? No, it’s true. A person should always think before he speaks. We have special sinks in our mosques for washing feet, yes, and in religion we are required to wash our feet five times a day. I myself try to follow this, but, for example, at the airport I no longer wash my feet in the sink, because for others this is not the norm.
I told Muhammad that an athlete should remain an athlete; if he wants to say something, he should be more diplomatic. You have to monitor your social networks, there are times when it boils over, you express yourself, but the demand from an ordinary person is normal, but from a journalist, the demand is five times greater. I think there were people who spoke worse, but there was no demand from them, but here the person people were watching was speaking, and that’s what happened. I think he didn’t intentionally want to humiliate anyone with this,” Ramazan Ismailov told .
