At the end of December 2002 Balavdi Ustarkhanov had arrived at Magomed M.'s house to celebrate the holidays. On 7 January 2003 a group of about ten unidentified armed men had broken into their yard. The men were wearing camouflage uniforms and masks. At first they went into Magomed M.'s house, and then came into his house. The men, who spoke unaccented Russian, checked everyone's passports and took away his passport. After the identity check the men had left with Balavdi Ustarkhanov in an unknown direction. At some later point he found out that the men had arrived at his house in a grey UAZ vehicle and a tented ZIL lorry. According to the witness, he had complained about the abduction of Balavdi Ustarkhanov to the Achkhoy-Martan ROVD and informed the latter's mother.

In 2000 he had lived temporarily in Achkhoy-Martan as a forced migrant, where he had befriended a local resident, Balavdi Ustarkhanov. At the end of December 2002 Balavdi had arrived at his home for a visit. On the night between 31 December 2002 and 1 January 2003 he and Balavdi had been involved in a fight between local youths. As a result Balavdi had received head injuries from a heavy object. He had asked Balavdi to stay in his house until he felt better. At about 6 a.m. on 7 January 2003 a group of about ten armed men in camouflage uniforms and masks had entered his house. The men refused to introduce themselves; they checked his identity documents and the documents of Balavdi Ustarkhanov. Then, without providing any explanations, they ordered Balavdi Ustarkhanov to follow them; they also took his passport. The armed men then went into his uncle's house, where they also conducted identity checks and took away Mr Makhadi M.'s passport. After the men left the house, he learned that they had driven around in a grey UAZ vehicle and a tented ZIL lorry without registration numbers.
