In Kazakhstan, eight in line for housing veterans of the Second World War were allocated apartments with a view of the cemetery

The Kazakh capital of miners Karaganda is actively built up, but the veterans of the Great Patriotic War, which are in line for housing, the apartments are allocated, to put it mildly, reluctantly, Komsomolskaya Pravda writes.

Today, there are only eight veterans in the list of waiting lists for housing. Dalila Seitmullina was 92 on April 30. She cannot live in such a respectable age, so for almost 20 years he has been living with her son's family. The other day, an invitation to the akimat (the regional executive body in Kazakhstan. - approx. Newsru.com). It seems to be a joyful occasion - to draw up documents for housing. And the family went to watch a new apartment.

But officials invited them to celebrate the housewarming in restored houses in
Depressive -criminal district of Karaganda - Makuduka. Near the shops, no pharmacies, no bus stops. And the most cynical - the windows overlook the city cemetery.

“Not only are these houses on the very outskirts of the city, there are not even central heating and water supply,” the daughter -in -law of Dalila Seitmullina Nadezhda told the Komsomolskaya Pravda. “It’s a shame about the view from the window. After this generous sentence, I said:“ Give us an excavator, we will dig up our old people there and put a fat point there. ”

The city authorities do not share black humor and do not understand the discontent of veterans and their families. As the head of the housing relationship department of the city akimat Karaganda Dauren Abishev said, now only these houses have had at the disposal of the akimat. They are restored, repaired, heating will be supplied through an autonomous boiler room. And as soon as the house is populated - and the bus will start to run, and there is a clinic in a neighboring microdistrict.

“By law, we were obliged to offer our waiting list of the apartment, and agree to them or refuse - this is their right,” the official summed up.

Of the eight veterans, one died, having not entered a new apartment, six abandoned these square meters. Relatives of another veteran persuaded the old man, since he may simply not live to another apartment.
