http://www.alertnet.org/thenews/newsdesk/L27465723.htmMOSCOW, Sept 27 (Reuters) - Mothers of children killed in Russia's Beslan school tragedy have demanded a probe into a cult leader who has offered to resurrect the victims, saying he is trying to discredit their campaign for justice.
Grigory Grabovoi, who says he can heal, save people and cure AIDS with his mind, convinced several Beslan mothers at a seance in Moscow last weekend that their children would return -- prompting the press to characterise them as deranged by grief.
"This cultist's cynical promise to resurrect those killed in the terrorist act is blasphemous to all those who suffered in this dreadful tragedy," said an appeal to General Prosecutor Vladimir Ustinov faxed to Reuters on Tuesday.
"We ... ask you to investigate the legality of Grigory Grabovoi's actions and to bring him to justice under Russian law," said the appeal, signed by a group of mothers.
