Hasbulla Magomedov Apologizes for Dangerous Driving
Hasbulla Magomedov, a social media star, has recently apologized after he and some of his friends were cited by the police for dangerous driving in his hometown of Makhachkala.
Videos show Hasbulla standing inside one car while multiple drivers blocked parts of the highway before performing doughnuts, burnouts, and racing through traffic.
Although Hasbulla wasn’t driving, he received a citation for violations, along with others who participated in the “wedding emotions,” as the police called it.
Hasbulla’s Update and the Ministry of Internal Affairs’ Statement
Hasbulla later posted an update on social media acknowledging the incident and apologizing for their actions.
He explained that they decided to hype it up a bit and that it wouldn’t happen again.
He stressed that he wasn’t driving any of the cars and that it wasn’t his car.
On the other hand, Dagestan’s Ministry of Internal Affairs released a statement explaining the situation, noting the scale of the celebrations, and emphasizing that all those who participated in the “wedding emotions” were taken to the police and received citations for violations.
Hasbulla’s Viral Online Career and UFC Contract
Hasbulla, who is only 3 feet 3 inches tall, sparked his viral online career in 2020 when he began sharing videos of his extreme activities in his native Dagestan.
He has amassed more than 9 million followers on his Instagram account and has become a bonafide internet sensation.
Last year, Hasbulla announced that he had signed a promotional contract with the UFC, and he has appeared at numerous UFC events in recent months.
Hasbulla’s Controversy Involving Animal Rights
In March of this year, Hasbulla courted criticism after sharing a video online in which he pulled his cat by the ear.
He was hammered by animal rights supporters who claimed he was abusing the animal, but Hasbulla insisted that he had done nothing wrong and was disciplining the cat for bad behavior.
He scolded the cat a little and pulled the ear gently.
He clarified that he loved his cat more than anyone else and that he wouldn’t have it at home if he didn’t love it.
