History
Garri Aiba was a veteran of the 1992-1993 war with Georgia, in which he led Abkhazia anti-aircraft defenses, and a prominent businessman. From 1995 to 2000 he had been mayor of Sukhumi, capital of Abkhazia. Aiba had become one of the leaders of Amtsakhara, which was one of the main movements in opposition to the government of President Vladislav Ardzinba, two other leaders of which had also been killed in previous years.
Murder
On 9 June 2004, Aiba's car came under fire, fifty metres from his home in Sukhumi. He got out of the car in an attempt to protect his ten-year-old daughter, but was seriously injured, and died later that day in the hospital. His death sent shockwaves through Abkhaz politics. Aiba had no business links and many people claimed that the killing was politically motivated. It sparked the resignations of several prominent ministers, including foreign minister (and fellow Amtsakhara leader) Sergey Shamba, interior minister Abessalom Beiya and Givi Agrba, head of the security services.[2] However, Shamba later denied that his resignation was related to Aiba's deathШаблон:Citation needed, and Prime Minister Raul Khadjimba refused to accept the resignations of Beiya and Agrba.Шаблон:Citation needed
No one has yet been charged with Aiba's murder. Former opposition leader Sergei Bagapsh has since become president.
