Staunton, January 3 – Despite the
holiday, Ingushetia remains in mourning after the attack on the police post in
Magas which resulted in two deaths. Muslim leaders are trying to comfort people
and explain why Islam must never be invoked to commit such senseless violence (gazetaingush.ru/obshchestvo/islam-religiya-dumayushchih-lyudey-religiya-teh-kogo-nelzya-vvesti-v-zabluzhdenie).
Siloviki continue to conduct
widespread searches, and there was one report that they had discovered a fake
bomb in Nazran. But it is not yet clear what that amounted to and whether it
was in any way related to the attack on the police post on New Year’s eve (kavkaz-uzel.eu/articles/344266/).
In an unrelated but intriguing
development, the Aktsenty news group reports that Ingushetia currently has 1485
government employees and spend on each of them 603,000 rubles (9900 US dollars)
a year, smaller numbers than all other republics in the North Caucasus except
for North Ossetia (facebook.com/groups/2421953458084994/permalink/2529824163964589/).
