Advocate of Evloev, deceased owner of "Ingushetia.Ru", plans to complain to European Court
The advocate of the family of Magomed Evloev, deceased owner of the oppositional website "Ingushetia.Ru", will appeal against the decision of the Prosecutor's Office of Ingushetia, which had forbidden inquiring into the criminal case about his illegal arrest during which he was shot dead.
"We have enough proofs that his detention was illegal," Musa Pliev, advocate of Evloev's family, said to the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent. "On Monday, March 23, I plan to appeal against the decision of the Prosecutor's Office at the court and General Prosecutor's Office of the Russian Federation. Also next week I'll file a complaint to the European Court on Human Rights concerning violations of Magomed Evloev's right to live."
Mr Pliev has reported that today the Court of Nazran has again rejected the petition (lodged for the first time in the end of 2008) of Ibragim Evloev, the defendant in Magomed Evloev's and former security head of Musa Medov, head of Ingushetian MIA, to transfer the hearings to some other region, as the "Gazeta.Ru" reports.
Yesterday, the Nazran Court of Ingushetia held preliminary hearings on Magomed Evloev's death. They defined the date of judicial hearings on the merits, which will take place on April 2 in Nazran. The only figurant in the case is Ibragim Evloev, security head and nephew of the former Interior Minister Musa Medov. He is accused of "involuntary manslaughter" (Article 109 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation).
