Regina Gagieva's relatives criticize inquiry into her murder case

In the course of the investigation of the murder of Regina Gagieva, a resident of Vladikavkaz, seven investigators have already replaced each other, Roksana Gagieva, Regina's sister, has stated.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that on September 18, the 22-year-old Regina Gagieva was wounded with a knife and died at hospital a week later. According to investigators, she was fatally stabbed by her ex-husband, who escaped from house arrest, from jealousy. The suspect is in custody.

According to Roksana Gagieva, Regina's relatives are unsatisfied with the course of inquiry: each new investigator again gets acquainted with the case, summons relatives for questioning; therefore, the progress is too slow.

"Within two months, seven investigators were replaced. When we come up with questions, they tell us each time: 'The investigator hasn't yet studied the case file.' And this despite the availability of a video record of [the murder], in which everything is clear," Roksana Gagieva told in her interview to the "Wings TV" Channel.
