Protest against searches
Dwellers of the Zagriazki temporary accommodation point for refugees held a public meeting in front of the local administration building earlier today. They claimed police officers had conducted searches in their flats two times earlier that week. In doing so, they were shooting randomly and beat several women and children. Besides, they say a person suspected of assistance to mojahideens was detained. Zagriazki dwellers demanded that the authorities should punish those guilty of abuse and release the detainee, Radio Liberty says.
