Ella Kesayeva, co-chairman of the 'Voice of Beslan' organization, has been brought up on administrative charges. The reason was a November 7th rally organized by 'Voice of Beslan' and 'Mothers of Beslan'. According to the indictment protocol, Ella Kesayeva is accused of putting up a road sign «without coordinating with traffic authorities.» Mostly women attended the rally, relatives of hostages slain in the assault (on the Beslan school). Only Ella Kesaeva was indicted, however, since she was the chief organizer of the rally. Kesayeva believes that the delay in the indictment is connected with orders from above. «If it was only the initiative of local police or local prosecutor,» she noted. «It would have been done in only a few days.» On November 7th the women set up a sign with the inscription «Putin's Course» next to the Beslan grammar school, with an arrow pointing in the direction of the school. Participants of the rally were protesting against an expanded advertising campaign in support of Russian President Vladimir Putin and his policies.

Yesterday marked the fifth anniversary of the 'Nord-Ost' tragedy. Meeting by the theatrical center building on Dubrovka were former hostages and relatives of the slain, as well as Muscovites, altogether about a thousand people. Politicians of all persuasions came: Yabloko Party leader Grigory Yavlinsky, SPS leader Nikita Belykh, National-Bolshevik ideologue Eduard Limonov, Russian People's Democratic Union chief Mikhail Kasyanov, and United Russia MP Josef Kobzon. They were, however, not trying to attract attention. On the steps of the building were portraits of the dead and burning candles. People came and laid red carnations next to them. On the wall of the theatrical center hung a large poster with the photos and names of all the victims. Nearby, on another wall, a granite plaque with the same names had been hung a few years ago. The chairman of the ‘Nord-Ost’ regional public organization, Tatyana Karpova, opened the memorial service. Be first to comment this article | Views: 5689 | E-mail |
