The effect of «harmless gas»: 8 years later people live on drugs, have become blind, deaf, insane, and given birth to disabled children
Today is the eighth anniversary of the tragedy that is abbreviated as 'Nord-Ost'.
On October 23rd, 2002, gunmen seized the Dubrovka theater complex in Moscow. 912 people became hostages. On October 26th, at 5.30 am, a secret gas was introduced into the theater building. As a result the terrorists were eliminated and 130 hostages were killed.
Years passed.
The Russian people turned another sad page of our history, and happily forgot the tragedy. So it is with human memory — all details, even important events, gradually disappear.
Today the former hostages who were disabled, mothers who lost their children, children who were in an instant deprived of parents, all were left alone with his grief. To this day they try to uncover the truth, which, in their opinion, the state buried along with the victims of Nord-Ost.
In their search for truth, survivors of the attack came to the Strasbourg Court.

The family lost their son, Nikolai's brother, Aleksandr Karpov, in the attack. According to them, despite assurances from the authorities that a «harmless gas» was used in the assault, 8 years later people constantly seek constant treatment for aggravated chronic and acquired illnesses.As Tatiana Karpova reported to «Novye Izvestiya», at this time the federal government does not assist the former hostages.
