Opposition of Ingushetia warns the authorities against attempts to hamper the rally

The opposition of Ingushetia is warning the authorities against any attempts to prevent to hold an all-Republic's protest rally.

The organizers of the action have warned, in particular, personally Musa Medov, Minister of Internal Affairs, that should he give an order to apply force, "every victim will be on his conscience, and the Minister will face the blood feud..."

This is a quote from the statement of the organizing committee of the rally that was sent to the editorial board of the "Echo Moskvy" Radio.

The "Caucasian Knot" informed earlier that residents of Ingushetia were planning to take part in the nationwide protest rally in connection with the latest developments in the Republic. The decision was made after a child of six was killed by power agents in one of private households in the course of a special operation.

We remind you that the protest action will take place on November 24 in Nazran. The Ingushes are planning "to discuss the situation in the Republic and to appeal to the president of Russia on behalf of the people of Ingushetia."

Representatives of the Russian-speaking population are also going to take part in the rally.

The independent web site "Ingushetia.Ru" reports that the Russians who live in Ingushetia want to elect the organizing committee and address human rights activists. They mark that an outflow of Russians from the Republic has started. About 30 families have already left the Sunzha District, people are moving out of villages Nesterovskaya, Ordzonikidzevskaya and Troitskaya.

By preliminary estimates of the organizing committee, the rally to be held in Nazran on November 24 can bring together about 10,000 persons, the web site remarks.
