Wife of missing Makhachkala resident is afraid for his life

Zagra Kazimagomedova, a resident of Makhachkala, is afraid that her husband, Murad Salikhov, 24, who disappeared on October 29, can be killed. She told the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent that she was waiting for the on duty inspector at the Investigatory Department at the Public Prosecutor's Office of the Sovietskiy District of the capital of Dagestan till late at night aiming to serve her petition to him, but he never appeared at his workplace.

The inspector told her by phone that her husband was detained as a witness in a certain case, but he refused to name the case. To Ms Kazimagomedova's question on where her husband was kept, he answered that he would be soon released and recommended her to go home.

The woman asked the inspector to come to his work and accept her application, but he said that he knew himself what to do, and he never arrived to his workplace.

Then, Zagra went to the Sovietskiy ROVD, but nobody wanted even to talk to her there. After a while, an SMS message arrived to her phone allegedly from the husband, where he asked her not to look for him, as he had left for his business for a couple of days. Kazimagomedova began calling her husband, but his phone was already switched off.

The woman thinks that the persons who had kidnapped her husband can kill him and then announce him to be a militant. "My husband never held arms in his hands. The Public Prosecutor's Office and the militia of Makhachkala are just killing time. Otherwise, why don't they accept my application? I accuse nobody, but I'm surprised with this behaviour of the people who should defend the law," said Zagra Kazimagomedova.
