BBC NEWS: Ingush Minister Shot Dead At Work

Ingush minister shot dead at work

The construction minister of the volatile Russian republic of Ingushetia has been murdered, Russian news agencies report.

Ruslan Amerkhanov was shot dead in his office in the town of Magas, local officials told Itar-Tass news agency.

Attacks on government officials have become more common in the troubled, mainly Muslim North Caucasus republic.

In June, Ingushetia's President Yunus-Bek Yevkurov was seriously wounded in an assassination attempt.

The Ingush interior ministry said an unidentified gunman shot and killed Mr Amerkhanov at point-blank range in his office.

Ingushetia has seen escalating clashes between security forces and armed militants in the past year, similar to the violence that continues in neighbouring Chechnya.

Three employees of Russia's emergencies ministry were shot dead in Ingushetia ten days ago.

In Chechnya, Russian forces were engaged in heavy fighting with separatist rebels until a few years ago, though the fighting has become much less intense recently.
