Russian Forces Kill Rebels In Kabardino-Balkaria

March 19, 2009
MOSCOW (Reuters) -- Russian security forces have killed a group of Muslim rebels in the southern region of Kabardino-Balkaria, news agencies said, a rare operation in one of the North Caucasus least violent regions.

An early morning raid on a house in a regional town by special forces killed three or four rebels, Interfax news agency quoted a security service force as saying.

Kabardino-Balkaria lies about 170 kilometers west of Chechnya, the focus of violence in the North Caucasus after two wars between federal forces and rebels since 1994.

Islamist radicalism has spread from Chechnya across the region over the last few years, but major operations in Kabardino-Balkaria have been relatively rare since a raid in 2005 by Islamist extremists in the capital, Nalchik, killed more than 100 people.

Human rights activists of Kabardino-Balkaria link restriction of juries with the Nalchik attack case

 
mar 07 2009, 13:00
 

The participants of the roundtable, held at the Public Human Rights Centre of the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic (KBR) believe that the restriction of juries is related to the particular criminal case, which considers the events on October 13, 2005, in Kabardino-Balkaria.

"In our opinion, the refusal from juries in cases dealing with terrorism and other anti-state crimes means a departure from democracy standards. These amendments are contradictory to the Constitution," said the head of the Centre Valery Khatazhukov in his opening word.

In Mr Khatazhukov's opinion, the very fact that at the process in the Supreme Court of Kabardino-Balkaria the prosecution stood for cancelling the jury on the criminal case on the events of October 13, 2005, indicates that the accusation party was not sure of ...
