Makhachkala authorities decide to build monument to Magomed Nurbagandov

Today, Musa Musaev, Mayor of the Dagestani capital, has announced the decision to build a monument to Magomed Nurbagandov, a staff member of the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MIA) for Dagestan. Besides, one of the streets of Makhachkala will be named after the Dagestani policeman.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that on September 21, Vladimir Putin signed a decree to award Magomed Nurbagandov, a Dagestani policeman, the title of Hero of Russia. On September 22, the Russian President handed over the star of the Hero of Russia to the parents of Magomed Nurbagandov.

According to Musa Musaev, officials of the Makhachkala Mayoralty "have been instructed to select a street in the Dagestani capital to be named in honour of the Hero of Russia Magomed Nurbagandov and further construction of the monument." The appropriate announcement has been made today by Musa Musaev at the meeting held in Makhachkala.

The idea to name one of the Dagestani capital's streets after Magomed Nurbagandov "will eternize the memory of the young man, who gave his life to remain faithful to his oath," stated Musa Musaev as quoted in the message posted on the website of the Makhachkala Mayoralty.
