Bastrykin took an interest in a complaint from villagers in Ingushetia about the road conditions.

Residents of the village of Barsuki in the Nazran district are having trouble getting the administration to repair the road leading to their school. The head of the Investigative Committee has ordered a criminal investigation.

According to a local resident, the villagers have been asking officials to resolve the road repair issue for a long time, but have received no answers. The road is completely damaged, cars are forced to drive over potholes and bumps, and walking the road is practically impossible for children.

Video with The Telegram channel "Fortanga," which has over 12,000 subscribers, published a complaint about the deplorable state of the road. By 8:37 p.m. Moscow time today, the post had garnered over 5,000 views.

The video shows the road turned into a muddy mess, with very deep potholes in places. Children have to cross this path to get to school.

"Then they talk about patriotic education or other important things. Look at the state of the road and how children are forced to walk to school. Horrible is an understatement," a local resident complained.

The Ingush authorities will not repair the road to School No. 3 in the village of Barsuki in the Nazran District in 2026 "due to limited federal budget funds." The district administration reported this in response to the Telegram channel's post.

Officials reported that they submitted an application to the Ministry of Agriculture of the Republic of Ingushetia to include the property in the state program "Integrated Development of Rural Areas," but were denied due to insufficient funds. "It is not possible to carry out the aforementioned work using the municipal budget of the Nazran District. There are also no investors (patrons) willing to undertake the street reconstruction work using their own (extra-budgetary) funds," the administration explained.

According to officials, the issue of transferring the road to the Ministry of Transport of the Republic for reconstruction under the national project "Safe and High-Quality Roads," funded by the federal budget, is currently being considered. The exact planned date for this is not specified.

The Investigative Committee responded today to reports of a damaged road in the village of Barsuki. The head of the department, Alexander Bastrykin, instructed the head of the republican administration, Akhmed Askhabov, to report on the criminal investigation.

"Violations of residents' rights have been reported online. The road on Kartoyeva Street has been in disrepair for a long time. Due to this, citizens are unable to freely reach school, and vehicle access is also impeded," the Investigative Committee said in a statement on its Telegram channel.

The Investigative Committee did not specify the article under which the criminal case was opened.

"Caucasian Knot" also reported that residents of the village of Verkhniye Achaluki in the Malgobek District called the road condition on Sheripova Street "catastrophic." Numerous appeals to the administration have yielded no results.
