10 June 2004 05:53 LDPR member barred from monitoring Chechen vote GROZNY. June 10 (Interfax) - The Chechen elections commission has refused to allow Akhmat Atsayev, a representative
of the Liberal Democratic Party of Russia (LDPR), to monitor the republic's presidential elections, the
commission's deputy chairman Buvai-Sari Arsakhanov told Interfax.
A decision to nominate representatives to monitor elections can be made only by a party's congress, not its
supreme council, Arsakhanov said.
LDPR member Marat Zainalabidov from Rostov-on-Don has already registered as a candidate in the Chechen presidential
race. [RU EUROPE EEU EMRG POL VOTE] tm tl
