Family members of repatriate from Syria granted free apartment in Nalchik
In Kabardino-Balkaria, a construction company has decided to grant free of charge seven apartments in a newly built residential complex to the people in need, including a family of a Circassian repatriate. The apartments will be connected to communications, and owners are to complete by themselves the works for interior finishing and arrangement of the apartments.
The residential complex "Lotus City" is a nine-storey building for 350 apartments, seven of which will be granted to families recommended by the Nalchik administration, and one more apartment to a family of an immigrant from Syria. This was told to the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent by Iyldyrym Sami Azmi, the chief of the construction company, a repatriate from Turkey.
According to him, the construction will be completed in 2017. The works are carried out at the expense of equity contributions and own resources of the developer. The businessman states that he got no assistance from the state.
Albina Dzakhmysheva, a resident of Nalchik, said that she appealed to the authorities with a request to solve her housing problem. Her 11-year-old son Akhmed Kishev is a wheelchair user, and the family is in need of additional living space.
Yali Kat, a female activist of the NGO "Ochag" (Hearth), has reported that at present, 15 families of Syrian Circassians are still accommodated at sanatoriums of Nalchik. Earlier, more than 80 families of repatriates were granted housing in Kabardino-Balkaria.
According to Yali Kat, repatriates are most in need of employment.
