The Azerbaijani diaspora in Moscow calls for a fair investigation into the assassination of Muslim activist Metin Mekhtiyev. Members of the diaspora say they deplore the tragedy deeply.
Mekhtiyev, 33, was killed in Moscow last night. The police believe he was killed by a robber, however the fact he was tortured may show that he was the victim of a hate crime.
Hate crimes have become quite frequent in Russia in the last decade, human rights advocates say. Several murders of Caucasians, Asians, Jews and gay people are notorious.
