ANOTHER AZERBAIJANI KILLED IN CLASH IN GEORGIA
By empty (1/19/2005 issue of the CACI Analyst)
One Azerbaijani was killed on 18 January and several people were injured in a fight in Georgia\'s Gardabani Raion between Georgian police and Azerbaijanis who were apparently trying to smuggle electronic equipment into Georgia from Azerbaijan. Local Azerbaijanis began throwing stones at police, injuring at least one of them, and police reportedly responded by firing into the air. It is the second fatal incident in a predominantly Azerbaijani-populated district of Georgia within the past two months; no one has yet been arrested for the killing of an elderly Azerbaijani woman in December.Visit also
