I
was born on 19 February 1940 in Aºgabat. My dear father went to fight
in the Second World War. He struggled against the fascist invaders in
Caucasia.
After
fighting for two years, in 1943, seven Türkmen, including my father, in
a Russian troop were captured by enemy forces at a village, called
Thcikola, Viladi Kafkaz of the capital city of the Northern Osetia. I
learnt the tragic fate of the hostages after 18 years by chance.
