23/10/2007 Police officers evict Abkhazian refugees in Sochi
Today, in the Imereti Lowland in the area Sochi (Krasnodar Territory), where erection of object for the 2014 Olympiad of 2014 is planned, they have started to evict refugees from Abkhazia out of their shabby dwellings.
Police officers have started the inventory of the belongings, to what residents react very painfully. One woman has fainted.
The police officers are accompanied by fifteen militiamen in armour vests.
The chief judicial police officer of the Adler District has informed the "Gazeta.Ru" correspondent that these houses had been once inhabited by the employees of the Federal State Unitary Enterprise "Yuzhzelenkhoz", but 15 years ago the house were recognized unfit for habitation and the tenants were moved to other places. Then, the flats were occupied by refugees from Abkhazia. They have no housing documents, although all of them are citizens of Russia.
Currently, the land where the houses are located is in long-term rent by some large company, which will be engaged in construction of the 2014 Olympic objects. According to the project, this territory will house a hotel complex, entertaining centres and a yacht club.
Representatives of the company have brought an action against the fact of illegal accommodation of people into the houses. On October 19, the court ordered the inhabitants of the shabby houses to move out, but the state has failed to provide them with any alternative habitation. Only some people obeyed, but most of them - 13 families (50 persons) - refused to free the houses.
However, later the information appeared that the authorities of the city made a decision to provide them with temporary habitation for one month in one sanatorium.
