Dagestan has almost half of its territory locked down under a special security regime known as the CTO, an abbreviation for “Counter-Terrorist Operation.” The Russian military enforces Martial law, curfews and random searches with ongoing talks about the new bloody war in the North Caucasus.

Anticorruption rally in downtown. The Russian justice system doesn't have real power in Dagestan. The rule of law is nepotism. People often can't find justice and truth from official authorities. At the same time, Jamaats' leaders claim to be "legitimate authority of Dagestan," with the aim of establishing a "fair society" based on Shari'a law.
