Another neo-Nazi raid in Moscow?

On April 6, 2009, Rafail Sadigov, born in 1991, the son of the vice-president of the Federal National Cultural Autonomy of Azerbaijanis of Russia (FNKA AzerRos) Mehriban Sadigova, was severely beaten in Moscow late in the evening.

R. Sadigov was attacked by a group of unknown young people near the house, shouting "kill blacks, kill reptiles" .

M. Sadigova on the same day applied to the police department "Kotlovka", where she wrote a statement about the attack on her son. Three attackers were detained by police officers and identified by the victims. Representatives of FNKA AzerRos appealed to the head of the Moscow City Internal Affairs Directorate, Colonel-General of Militia Vladimir Pronin, with a request to take this court case under his control.

It turned out that on the same day, the same group beat up a citizen of Tajikistan and several other people "on a national basis . " The total number of casualties is unknown.
