Russian destroy boom shop linked to Abu Walid aide
As a result of a special operation in the village of Psedakh, Ingushetia, carried out on Thursday, officers of the Russian Federal Security Service, the Interior Ministry and the Chechen president’s security service destroyed four bandits from the armed gang of Muslim Dzheniev and its chieftain as well as an underground workshop, producing explosive devices. Explosive devices were made to commit terror acts in regions, forming the Southern Federal District, Tass learnt on Friday from spokesman of the regional headquarters on the counter-terrorist operation in the North Caucasus Ilya Shabalkin.
Ilya's been busy lately, hasn't he?
According to the spokesman, the underground workshop was fitted out at a tenanted house in Psedakh. It had manufactured explosive devices which terrorists had used in terror acts in various regions of Russia in the recent past. The gang ringleader was subordinated directly to Arab mercenary Abu al-Walid who is the real warlord of all armed gangs in Chechnya. He had appointed Dzheniev the so-called emir of the Dzhamaat of the Nadterechny district of Chechnya. According to the spokesman, the gang, while operating in the Nadterechny district, made regular sallies into neighbouring Ingushetia. Gunmen committed terror acts and kidnapped people for ransom. The gang chieftain directly participated in the assassination of head of Nadterechny district Akhmed Zavgayev, getting one million U.S. dollars from Basayev for this terror act as remuneration.
That's pretty good money, even for a button man...
Dzheniev is a mastermind of murders of Ingushetia policemen in the village of Voznesenskoye and attacks on military convoys. All the gang members underwent training in saboteur acts at camps of armed gangs under the guidance of Arab hirelings. According to Shabalkin, while inspecting the underground workshop, officers found a lot of components for assembly of homemade explosive devices and spares to repair firearms and for manufacture of elements for noiseless firing.
