- Threats
of violence against "errant" women are viewed as
"acts of patriotism."
- "They
have come to Germany because they wanted to live in Germany,
but they keep trying to turn it into Chechnya with its
medieval ways." — Social worker interviewed by Meduza.
- "Everyone's
attention is fixed on the Syrians, but the Chechens are the
most dangerous group. We are not paying sufficient attention
to this." — Police in Frankfurt (Oder).
Chechens
have said in interviews that expectations for behavior are more
rigid and strict in among Chechen emigrants in Germany than in
Chechnya itself -- "a competition in righteousness."

A hundred Islamists are now openly enforcing Sharia
law on the streets of Berlin, according to local police who are
investigating a recent string of violent assaults in the German
capital.
The self-appointed morality police involve Salafists
from Chechnya, a predominantly Sunni Muslim region in Russia. The
vigilantes are using threats of violence to discourage Chechen
migrants from integrating into German society; they are also
promoting the establishment of a parallel Islamic legal system in
Germany. German authorities appear unable to stop them.
