Chechen villagers
rally over young girl's abduction
About 1,000 residents of the Chechen village of Samashki, mostly women
and children, blocked traffic on the Kavkaz highway on Monday. The action
was triggered by the abduction of a 16-year-old villager, Eliza Katsayeva,
by unidentified masked people last Saturday. Protesters blocked the
traffic through a checkpoint on the highway. Dozens of cars have piled
up on the road. The rally participants say that they want to meet representatives
from the pro-Moscow administration and the Russian forces in the North
Caucasus.
