HRW: Aushev's murder challenges Evkurov's power in Ingushetia

The Human Rights Watch (HRW) believes that the murder of Maksharip Aushev, a well-known Ingush oppositionist and former owner of the website "Ingushetia.Org", causes doubts of whether President of Ingushetia Yunus-Bek Evkurov has enough power to preserve the pluralism, which he tries to support, in his republic.

"The following is absolutely clear now: being engaged in human rights activities, or being with the opposition, or being a journalist is a mortal danger in Northern Caucasus," said Tatiana Lokshina, deputy head of the Moscow bureau of the HRW.

In her opinion, "the Kremlin should do something to this end," The New York Times reports.
