Relatives of the missing block road
On 16 July, people from the village of Khashuri, Georgia, joined the Khachapuridze brothers' relatives blocking the Gori-Tskhinval road near the Ergneti police post and demanding that the bodies of the abducted Georgians be given to them. The Khashuri residents blocked the road near the post of Russian peacekeepers in Megvrekisi, says a Caucasian Knot correspondent.
The four Georgians (three Khachapuridze brothers and a resident of Khashuri - editor's note) went missing in the zone of the Georgian-Osetian conflict more than 40 days ago. Their relatives have learnt from unofficial sources in South Osetia they are already dead.
