Guliev had also publicized critical materials about former Ingush Interior Minister Khamsat Gutseriev. In response to an appeal from Guliev, the Supreme Court of Ingushetia last year annulled the registration of Gutseriev as a candidate for republican president for violating campaign rules. Investigators are looking into possible political, personal, and economic motives for Guliev\'s killing. (gazeta.ru)
