2008-02-03 |
The policemen pursued gunmen who were in a VAZ car, and the bandits opened fire on the police vehicle. In the exchange of fire, one gunman, Movsar Akhmadov, was killed. He had a Makarov pistol and two magazines for a Kalashnikov submachine gun. Three Koran books, three sets of winter police uniform and about 300 grammes of brown-colour explosive substance, supposedly trinitrotoluene, were also found in the bandits' car when it was examined. Search was launched to detain the remaining gunmen. |
