Seven people shot dead in KalinovskayaRuslan Isayev, North Caucasus - Seven people, including an elderly man and woman, were shot at close range today by unknown assailants in the Naurski district.
This tragedy took place at 4 a.m. in the Kalinovskaya village when two unmarked cars drove to the home of the Iduyev family. According to witnesses, everyone in the cars wore masks.
These masked men entered the house and immediately opened fire with automatic weapons, killing everyone except a young child. They then went into two houses next door and fatally shot the three people who lived there.
A total of seven people were killed, all of them deliberately shot in the head so as to make sure their bullets would not go wide off the mark and leave anyone alive.
Neighbors said the attackers spoke precise Russian, and that neither of the victims were members of the Chechen resistance movement or part of any Moscow-backed authority. Meanwhile, the prosecution has not produced any version of the slayings. (T/E) |
