Anti-corruption "hotline" established in the Government of Ingushetia

An anti-corruption "hotline" has been opened in the Government of Ingushetia. Telephone calls from the residents are received round-the-clock.

The number of the "hotline" in Ingushetia is: +7 (8734) 55-14-24.

Residents of the republic will be able to report facts of corruption, non-fulfilment of their duties by officials and managers to the "hotline". One can also report abuse of power, a message on the web-site of Ingush Government runs.

Summing up the results of his two-year presidency on November, 5, Yunus-Bek Evkurov declared that he would continue his struggle against corruption in Ingushetia. Evkurov said that he had not been ready to discover "all the officials' mass desire to earn in any possible way".

"There is not a single post in the republic where an official would miss a chance to earn on carrying out his direct duties, i.e. making out some certificates, other documents etc. We are struggling against this", "Northern Caucasus" quotes Evkurov's speech.
