AZERI, UZBEK CITIZENS FOUND STABBED TO DEATH IN MOSCOW
October 16, 2013 – 19:36 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net – An Azerbaijani citizen has been found dead from an
apparent stabbing in Moscow’s eastern Izmailovo district, the second
murder of a non-Russian in as many days, RFE/RL said.
Moscow police said the man’s body was found on October 16, one day
after a 51-year-old Uzbek national was found dead with multiple stab
wounds in Moscow’s troubled Biryulyovo district.
The Biryulyovo district made headlines on October 13 after thousands
of antimigrant protesters stormed a local vegetable warehouse, where
many labor migrants work, and clashed with police.
That incident followed the killing of a Russian man by a suspected
migrant from the Caucasus.
On October 14, police arrested more than 1,200 migrant workers
in Biryulyovo. On Tuesday, police arrested an Azerbaijani citizen
suspected in the killing of the Russian man. A court in Moscow has
closed the vegetable warehouse in Biryulyovo for 90 days.
