On hunger strike in protest of non-payment
Twelve residents of the Gulkevichi district in the Krasnodar territory announced on 27 June a no-time-limit hunger strike in protest against the non-payment of compensations for their homes lost during a flood in 2002.
Oleg Bezrodnyi, the territorial vice-governor for construction, architecture and the housing and utilities sector, told Interfax Yug earlier today the situation needed to be examined, as everyone on the list of people who suffered because of the flood in 2002 had been paid according to his information.
