Another racist murder in Moscow?

Published 19 February, 2008, 03:00

An Uzbek national has been stabbed to death in southwest Moscow. The Interfax news agency, which quotes sources in the city's police department, says the attack may have been racially motivated.

The man, aged 25, was reported to have been attacked by a group of teenagers who repeatedly stabbed him.

A criminal case has been launched into the incident.

It's the seventh fatal attack on a CIS citizen in the Russian capital in the last month.

The wave has forced authorities to look for new measures to deal with the issue.
