"Ren-TV" journalists are sure that they were attacked by special agents in Ingushetia
The members of the filming crew of the "Ren-TV" Company who were kidnapped and beaten in Ingushetia at night of Saturday, January 24, are confident that they were attacked by employees of local special agencies.
Journalist Stanislav Goryachev told after his return to Moscow that "the condition of the victims as a whole is normal - none of us has vivid fractures, but everybody, of course, has grazes and bruises." The TV reporter has noted that the unknown persons in masks who were beating the employees of the Company and the head of "Memorial" Oleg Orlov behaved extremely calmly. According to his words, as quoted by the "Kommersant" newspaper, nobody, except for members of special agencies, remains so calm when doing such things."
In his turn, Sergey Shelvykin, deputy editor of the information service of the "Ren-TV" Channel, has reported that the attack has not passed traceless for the guys, there is a suspicion of brain concussion, and, probably, kidneys are damaged."
