Moscow : A Turkish national has been stabbed to death by unknown assailants in southeast Moscow, a police source said on Monday.

The body of the 27-year-old male, who worked as an electrician at a Moscow-based company, was found on Sunday evening in the doorway of an apartment house.

Forensic experts said the man had died from multiple stab wounds. A criminal case has been opened.

Routine attacks by skinheads and young gangs on foreigners and people with non-Slavic features have been reported across Russia in recent years.

Earlier on Monday, four people in St. Petersburg, Russia’s second largest city, were detained on suspicion of murdering a Kyrgyz man, the fourth murder of a Kyrgyz national in Russia in the last month.
