SUKHUMI, April 7 (Itar-Tass) -- The Abkhazian Prosecutor General’s office is considering the professional, criminal and foreign policy versions of the assassination attempt against prime Minister Alexander Ankvab, staged early this month.
The chief of the Prosecutor-General’s Office investigation branch, Dzhamal Gogiya has said the professional version casts suspicion on those businessmen, whose economic interests might have been harmed by tighter control of Abkhazia’s economy. The criminal version brings into focus those criminal bosses who may have been angered by the prime-minister’s statements and measures against organized crime. Lastly, according to the foreign policy version, the attack might have been staged by foreign secret services with the aim of throwing the social and political situation in Abkhazia off balance.
The assassination attempt against Abkhazia’s Prime Minister Alexander Ankvab occurred in the Sukhumi district on April 1.
A joint team of investigators from the Abkhazian Prosecutor General’s Office, State Security Service and Interior Ministry was formed. The chief investigator of the Prosecutor General’s Office, Dzhamal Gogiya leads the inquiry personally.
