The authorities of Krymsk promised the inhabitants of money - 10 thousand roubles - if they would sign a paper saying that they had been warned about the coming flood. This is stated in the report of TV company "Vesti-Kuban".

Earlier that financial compensation is paid only in exchange for a receipt that they had been notified about the beginning of the disaster, said the correspondent "Kommersant" Oleg Kashin.

Meanwhile, the townsfolk was born on another version about the reasons of the tragedy. New rumor: abnormal rains were caused by the fact that in Sochi artificially dispersed the clouds, so that in time to finish the construction of the Olympic objects, " on schedule", says "Novaya Gazeta".

The officials also introduced a new version of events. According to Rosprirodnadzor, one of the reasons of tragedy in the Kuban region was the development of flooding. About the same today said the head of civil DEFENSE and emergencies of the Crimean region Dennis Pronin, in his words, many people live in "danger zones, where for 50 years, prohibited the construction of houses".

"But when we do and who we stopped prohibitions? Unauthorized build, and then put before the fact. But over the last year and a half while I'm in this position, was not signed a single application. So how many complaints I was punched!" he resented.

Flooding in the Kuban happened in the night of July 7. Still no data on the exact number of victims. The local authorities announced a figure of 172 people, according to the UK - 162, of which 148 - in Krymsk. Krymsk residents are sure that victims are hundreds of times more.
