Unknown assailants abduct Chechen refugee in Ingushetia

In the afternoon of March 10, armed men in military camouflage abducted 19-year-old Bislan Dokuyev from the Satsita refugee camp, located near Ordzhonikidzevskaya, Ingushetia.

The assailants arrived at the camp in three Zhiguli cars, dragged Dokuyev out of the tent he shared with his parents, shoved him into one of the cars and quickly drove off in the direction of Chechnya. His mother, who tried to protect him, was hit with a gun butt.

A neighbor, Dagman Okhayeva, whose son was shot dead under strange circumstances a month earlier in Karabulak by members of some special service, was so frightened by Dokuyev's abduction that she suffered a heart attack; doctors fought almost all night trying to save her life.

So far Dokuyev's relatives have been unable to find out who is responsible for his abduction or where he was taken.
