I forgot to tell that mahir.bib is placed in the local directory I am
working while bibgraf.bib is placed in

 /home/oub/texmf/bibtex/bib


So the solution I found in 
https://bug-auctex.gnu.narkive.com/s2Oz8HpC/24-3-1-reftex-fails-to-find-multiple-bib-files-in-bibliography-with-commas

I had to set (setq reftex-use-external-file-finders t)

and everything worked as expected. Maybe one should set this variable to
t per default.
