Shop shelled in Nazran, owner killed
As reported by a source from the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ingushetia, at night of February 27, unidentified persons shelled a shop in Nazran from their sub-machine guns killing one person and wounding another one.
The attacked shop was one of several in Nazran selling alcohol. In several last years in Ingushetia shops selling alcohol were periodically shelled, or their owners were shot dead.
"In the municipal district of Altievo of Nazran, at about 11:00 a.m. Moscow time, two unidentified persons came into a small shop in the territory of a creamery and opened sub-machine gun fire. As a result of the attack, the owner of the shop and his seller were wounded," said the source.
According to his version, the owner of the shop Adam Bachalov died from the wounds, as the "Gazeta.Ru" reports. According to law enforcement bodies, the criminals disappeared in a VAZ-21112 car, as the "Interfax" reports.
Moslem clergymen tend to believe that attacks are made on religious motives, since the rules of Islam categorically forbid to sell and use alcohol.
