Head of North Ossetia's Alagirsky District may go to jail for mass poisoning

Ruslan Khadartsev, the chief administrator of the Alagir District, and Vyacheslav Pliyev, the director of the Alagirkommunresurs state enterprise, may become subjects of a criminal case for mass poisoning in North Ossetia, TASS reports.

The suspects are accused of poor monitoring of water quality in Alagir.

Several people were poisoned in Alagir in October 2014 as a result of problems with tap water. The same problem has caused recent mass poisoning.
