A leading Russian investigative journalist has been brutally attacked on a working trip to Chechnya - a republic of Russia governed by close Vladimir Putin ally Ramzan Kadyrov who had previously described the reporter as a 'terrorist'.
Elena Milashina, 45, and lawyer Alexander Nemov - who was also savagely beaten - were stopped by armed and masked men as they arrived in the regional capital Grozny to attend a court case linked to human right abuses.
The pair received death threats and had guns pointed at their heads, according to reports, while Milashina's head was shaved and her fingers broken in a brutal assault.
The reporter, who works for the banned independent paper Novaya Gazeta, also received a head wound, passed out several times and was doused in green dye in the vile attack.
Mr Nemov, 35, was stabbed with a knife and received leg wounds, according to the human rights group Team Against Torture, but still intends to go to the trial the pair had travelled to the state to attend.
Kadyrov - sanctioned in the West over alleged human rights abuses - is one of Putin's strongest backers on the war with Ukraine.
He earlier labelled Ms Milashina a terrorist, one of those who were allegedly 'always destroyed' in his republic.
Rumours have swirled in recent days over his health amid claims he is suffering from acute kidney or liver problems.
Referring to the attack on Ms Milashina and Mr Nemov, the human rights group Memorial said in a statement on Telegram: 'They were brutally kicked, including in the face, threatened with death, had a gun held to their heads, and had their equipment taken away and smashed.
'While being beaten, they were told: 'You have been warned. Get out of here and don't write anything.'

Salute our president, The Pedo Tater:
“Russia is just Rwanda with nukes and can’t face it.”
So is the US. We are a police state banana republic right now.
Sounds a lot like the US Biden Government warning all the media about Hunter and the Biden Crime Family. Only it is more subtle here. The media are owned by the Demunists.
I bumped into Kerry at a 7-11 on Cape Cod back around 1990.
He was dressed like a beach bum and was very rude to the customers ahead of him in line (me and my friend).
He had what looked like a 17 year old blonde girl with him.
Irredeemable bum. Didn’t he marry some very wealthy woman who wasn’t pretty?
Theresa Heinz.
Pretty sure he was married at the time.
Super rude ahole making noises behind me I finally turned around to see who the jerk was and lo and behold it was the war hero himself.
You don’t read well. You think you’re very smart.
I said both sides can have her. I don’t have an opinion on her based on this article.
