Relatives of those killed in the Beslan terrorist attack are not allowed to see the president Some of the relatives of those killed during the terrorist attack in Beslan in September 2004 will not be allowed to meet with President Dmitry Medvedev. 'Voice of Beslan' stated this in an open letter to the president, a copy of which was received by Kasparov.ru on May 4th. «Parents of children killed in the attack have repeatedly written you requesting a meeting, and hundreds of victims have signed petitions such as this in the hope that they will be heard, but the fears that our delegates would not allowed to see the President have been justified,» read the letter. According to activists from 'Voice of Beslan', the government «has decided to form its own group of victim representatives.» They are convinced that the meeting will be “just for show".

Belarusian law enforcements took less than two days to identify and detain those suspected of committing the terrorist act At ‘May Day’ station I walk through a metal detector, the likes of which had never been seen on the Minsk subway until after the April 11th terrorist attack, just as there never used to be police patrols. The people in camouflage uniforms and berets showed up a few hours after the tragedy, while the stationary metal detectors were installed the following day. My compact travel bag did not summon interest from law enforcement, but a disheveled guy who passed me just before the subway entrance was stopped and searched. It did not take long. The police worked quickly, politely, and without irritation. Be first to comment this article | Views: 4345 | E-mail |
