Murder of the daughter of the special force fighter who perished in Beslan could be a vengeance

On September 5 it became known about the murder in Moscow outskirts of Oksana Kuznetsova, 18, a daughter of Major Mikhail Kuznetsov, employee of the FSB's Special-Purpose Centre, one of the ten special force fighters who perished while releasing Beslan hostages. The girl was slaughtered last Tuesday - on the following day after solemn opening of a monument to her father in the Ramenskiy District, the "Kommersant" newspaper writes.

Mikhail Kuznetsov was at war in Afghanistan, as a member of the "Vympel" (Pennon) special regiment he took part in storming the White House and Grozny, and in liberation operation of hostages in the Dubrovka Theatre Centre.

"For us this murder was a real shock," Susanna Dudieva, head of the "Beslan Mothers" Committee, said. "For three years already the families of Beslan victims are keeping friendly relations with the relatives of the perished fighters of the 'Alpha' and 'Vympel' detachments, therefore, we've taken Oksana's murder as a personal tragedy. It can't be just an accident. Most likely, it was a revenge of the relatives of the degenerates who seized the Beslan school."

Despite the fact that neither money, nor her mobile phone and other valuable things were not stolen from Oksana Kuznetsova, the prosecutor's office tends to think that the girl fell victim of an assault, the above edition remarks.

The newspaper writes that residents of the settlement of Yurovo have immortalized the memory of their fellow countryman-hero and opened on September 1 at local school a bust to FSB Major Mikhail Kuznetsov, Oksana's father. He perished on September 3, on the birthday of his wife, during the storm of the Beslan school. Before his death, he saved 20 persons and killed two militants.

"It's hard to believe that Oksana was killed for some common everyday reason," Oksana's girlfriend asserts. "She was in good relations with everybody. At least I don't know people who could have a reason to kill her."
