Relatives of Rashidov and Ramazanov doubt version of accidental explosion

Relatives of Ramazan Rashidov and Shamil Ramazanov, residents of Kaspiysk, kidnapped in June, believe they were killed. According to the relatives, they allowed to take their biological samples for the detection of DNA.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that on June 27, a blown-up car with fragments of two human bodies inside it was found in the Karabudakhkent District. Law enforcers identified the deceased men as Ramazan Rashidov and Shamil Ramazanov.

Earlier, the family members of Ramazan Rashidov have stated that "the passenger compartment of his car contained no signs of fire or blood."

The relatives of Ramazan Rashidov and Shamil Ramazanov believe that the version of accidental explosion inside the car "was cooked by the law enforcers."

"At first, Ramazan and Shamil were kidnapped and then killed without trial and investigation. And at present, the law enforcers state that our guys were plotting a terror act," says one of the relatives of the deceased men.

According to a sister of Ramazan Rashidov, Ramazanov and Rashidov were distant relatives and both of them were preventively registered at the Dagestani Ministry of Internal Affairs (MIA).

On June 20, the relatives of Ramazan Rashidov and Shamil Ramazanov reported that they found eyewitnesses to the kidnapping. Furthermore, a video was also released, showing how several people, including men in uniform, were beating Shamil Ramazanov and taking him away in their car.
