 Amnesty International - Campaigns - Russia Campaign - Update: Kheda (Elza) Kungaeva
On 25 July 2003, a verdict was reached in the trial of Yurii Budanov who was charged with the kidnapping and murder of Kheda Kungaeva.
Yurii Budanov was found guilty, on appeal, of all charges against him (kidnapping, murder, and exceeding the authority of his office) and has been sentenced to 10 years imprisonment in a high security prison.
On December 31, 2002 the North Caucasian military court in Rostov-on-Don found Yurii Budanov not criminally responsible for the murder of Chechen Kheda Kungaeva, as psychiatric tests conducted by specialists from Russia’s leading Serbsky Institute of Forensic Psychiatry ruled that at the time of the murder the colonel was ''temporarily insane''.

 Backgrounder on the Case of Kheda Kungaeva (Feb 2001)
On March 27, 2000, Kheda Kungaeva, an eighteen-year-old woman, was taken from her home in Chechnya, beaten, raped, and murdered.
Initially, the case of Kheda Kungaeva appeared unique--not in the brutality endured by a Chechen civilian at the hands of federal forces, which was all too familiar--but because top military officials publicly acknowledged and promptly investigated the crime.
However, the failure to bring charges of rape, despite the presence of conclusive forensic evidence of anal and vaginal penetration just before her death, raises a concern that authorities are not prosecuting the case fully.

The first Russian officer to be tried for crimes against civilians in Chechnya since the renewed conflict began in 1999, on 25 July 2003 Colonel Yurii Budanov was found guilty of all charges against him (kidnapping, murder, and exceeding the authority of his office) and has been stripped of his military rank and all awards.
The re-trial followed an international outcry about the original ruling that he was suffering from ‘temporary insanity’ at the time of the alleged murder and rape of 18-year-old Elza Kungaeva in 2000, and therefore relieved of criminal responsibility.
Earlier rape charges against Yuri Budanov were dropped because one of his subordinates confessed that he had violated Kheda Kungaeva’s body after her death.
