Azerbaijani businessman assassinated in Moscow
In the evening of December 31, a news item appeared in the web-site of the "Gorskie.Ru" Information Agency that several days ago in Moscow, in 3rd Park Street in Moscow, a young Jewish businessman, a native of the "Krasnaya Sloboda" (Red Settlement) in Azerbaijan was murdered, the Channel Seven has reported.
According to the source, the businessman of 30 was assaulted on his way to the kindergarten where he was going to pick up his child.
According to unconfirmed information, the victim was several times struck with a knife. It was established in the course of investigation that nothing from the personal belongings of the casualty was stolen. A nationalist-motivated murder cannot be excluded. According to the available information, the victim's relatives have no explanations of the accident.
So far, the official web-site of the Ministry of Interior of the Russian capital has provided no data about this murder - possibly, because of the holidays, the NEWSru remarks.
