Moscow delegate calls for Zakuskin’s resignation for his conflict with a native of Chechnya

Alexander Zakuskin should leave his post of the head of the council of delegates for the Meschansky District of Moscow because of his conflict with native of Chechnya Salima Yusupkhadjieva, says Yuri Reinhimmel, a delegate of the district council. He sent his colleagues a relevant draft decision.

The “Caucasian Knot” has reported that on February 13, Alexander Zakuskin, the head of the council of delegates for the Meschansky District of Moscow, posted a video with his apology to Chechen native Salima Yusupkhadjieva. Alexander Zakuskin emphasized that the conflict “was exclusively domestic in nature, and not international.’

On February 10, 69-year-old Salima Yusupkhadjieva, who was selling sausages near the Moscow Cathedral Mosque, had to call an ambulance after Alexander Zakuskin had sprayed liquid in her face from a spray can. Alexander Zakuskin threatened the elderly Chechen woman with “deportation” for unauthorized trade, the victim herself said.

Yuri Reinhimmel, a delegate of the council of the Meschansky District of Moscow, reacted to the conflict between Alexander Zakuskin and the elderly Chechen woman. “In connection with the recent events in the Meschansky District, I have to submit to the council of delegates a draft decision ‘On the early termination of the powers of Alexander Andreevich Zakuskin, the head of the Meschansky municipal district’,” Yuri Reinhimmel has written today on his VKontakte page.

“I suggest that he himself write a letter of resignation, and the council of delegates would adopt such a statement at the next meeting,” Yuri Reinhimmel reported.
