The Kadyrov family is a Chechen political family that has played a prominent role in the governance of Chechnya, an autonomous region of Russia, since Akhmad Kadyrov became the head of the Chechen state in 2000. [1] The region has been governed by members of the Kadyrov family nearly continuously since 2000, with a brief lapse in power from 2004 to 2007 during Alu Alkhanov's tenure as president.
Ramzan Kadyrov has been noted for attempting to establish a political dynasty to succeed him, appointing various family members to key positions within the Chechen political administration and paramilitary forces. [2] Under the control of the Kadyrov family, Chechnya has become notable for its human rights abuses, including murder, torture, forced disappearances and illegal destruction of property, particularly against LGBTQ+ groups.
