HR activists call Chechnya elections `farce`, refuse to send observers
Russian human rights activists will not send observers to the October 5 presidential elections in Chechnya.

"Now that three viable candidates have been
excluded from the presidential race, there is no point in sending observers to Chechnya. We will keep an eye on
the situation, but will not send monitors," Moscow Helsinki Group head Lyudmila Alexeyeva told a news conference
in Moscow on Wednesday.
