The inhabitants of Ingushetia are very concerned about abuses and misdeeds repeatedly committed by Russian federal servicemen. Arshty village, just recently being blockaded for several days by special forces was subjected to mass abuses and violation of human rights while the servicemen carried out ‘special operation’. Many Ingushi people concluded the Ingushetia’s authorities remained incapable to restrain the servicemen and get the situation under control.
