Russian Puppets Arrest Foreign Journalists in Chechnya Publication time: Today at 17:58 Djokhar time
An Austrian TV journalist, her cameraman and a sound technician were briefly detained Friday while filming in the restive southern Russia region of Chechnya, their station said.
State broadcaster ORF said its longtime Moscow correspondent, Susanne Scholl, and her two assistants were arrested and held by puppet police before they were released a few hours later. The station did not say whether the Chechen puppets gave a reason for the detentions or whether some foreigners' property was stolen, as usual, by Russian puppets.
ORF said the crew's video was seized, and general manager Alexander Wrabetz said the station would lodge a formal protest with the Russian Embassy in Vienna.
