Russian interior minister demands vote fraud reports

Russian Interior Minister Rashid Nurgaliyev instructed regional police heads on Friday to report on their investigation into alleged voting irregularities during the recent parliamentary election, RIA Novosti reports.

“You must hand in reports on the measures you have taken on all complaints filed during the election campaign to the Interior Ministry by December 15th,” Nurgaliyev told a ministry meeting in Moscow.

The remarks came after series of protests in many Russian cities, including Moscow and St. Peterburg, where hundreds of people were arrested this week.
