Three Russian lady-teacher's family members assassinated in Ingushetia
In the city of Karabulak (Ingushetia), unknown persons have murdered the husband and two sons of local teacher Draganchuk, Vera Borisovna. The "Interfax" has been informed at the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MIA) of Ingushetia that the murder was accomplished today about midnight in House No. 55, Lenina Street.
As a result of the attack, her husband and one son - Group I invalid - died in situ from inflicted wounds. The other son - a student of one of Ingushetian higher schools - died at hospital from injuries. According to the information of the web portal "Ingushetia.Ru," the assassinated teacher's sons were 20 and 24 years old.
Under the data of the Ingushetia's MIA, the teacher and her brother have survived because during the murder they were in another part of the house.
In the words of the neighbours, the family of the teacher was a highly respected one and had no enemies, the "Rosbalt" reports.
The investigation puts forward a number of versions of the incident. According to one of them, the attack was committed by the same group of criminals who shot dead the family of teacher Liudmila Teryokhina in Ordzhonikidzevskaya village on July 16. The similarity of the manner of committing the crime speaks in favour of this assumption.
According to another version, the murder was a revenge of militants for the death of Islam Garakoev who was killed on August 30 in the course of a special operation aimed to detect persons-members of illegal armed formations.
