About 25 persons attend action in memory of Kuashev in Nalchik

An event "Year of Inaction" was held in Nalchik in memory of the slain journalist Timur Kuashev bringing together journalists and public figures from the republics of Northern Caucasus and Moscow.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that Kuashev was found dead in the outskirt of Nalchik on August 1, 2014. According to investigators, a trace of injection was found on his body.

In December 2014, investigators reported that they had interrogated over 80 people and gathered nine volumes of case files on the death of Kuashev. In January 2015, the website "change.org" posted a petition, stating that the investigators' questions to witnesses were formal. According to its authors, "the murder of Kuashev is deliberately brought to non-solving".

The memory action was held on August 2 in the yard of the Kuashevs' house, where a year ago the funeral events were held, Abakar Abakarov, the organizer and a Dagestani public figure, told the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent.

According to his story, the participants of the event decided to address the heads of investigating authorities with a demand to pass the murder case over to the ICRF, "because at the local level there is no progress in the investigation thereof."
