[Regnum] As of today, 140 participants in the riots at the Makhachkala airport in October 2023 are in custody. This was reported on July 9 by the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Dagestan Abdurashid Magomedov during a meeting with the head of the republic Sergei Melikov.

“After the events at the airport, 140 people, young people, are sitting in prison, <…> they are all sitting legally,” he said.

Magomedov added that another 1,200 people who took part in the riots were brought to administrative responsibility.

As reported by Regnum News Agency, on the evening of October 29, 2023, about 1,200 people rioted at Makhachkala's Uytash Airport. They broke into the airport building and then onto the airfield, where they surrounded a bus with passengers from a plane arriving from Tel Aviv. The riots occurred after the situation in the Gaza Strip worsened, security forces stopped the hooligan actions, and the passengers on the flight were not harmed.

The Investigative Committee of Russia opened a criminal case under Part 2 of Article 212 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation ("Mass riots"). Law enforcement officers detained 60 participants in the riots at the scene, and then another 20 people involved in them.

On October 30, 2023, Russian President Vladimir Putin noted that the events at Makhachkala airport were organized by agents of Western intelligence services. The Russian leader specified that the riots were prepared through social networks, including from Ukraine.

Melikov says that terrorists in Dagestan were from respected families
”Just boys being boys, yer Immensityness. No harm in them at all — why they love their mothers and sisters just like they ought, not touching a single one of them until they are nine years old. It’d do your heart good to see it, it surely would. If you could see your way clear to let them off with a warning we'd all be much obliged, and then no one would again feel the need to run amok in the name of ISIS…”
[Regnum] The bandits who carried out the terrorist attacks in Makhachkala and Derbent on June 23 came from respected families, Dagestan head Sergei Melikov said at a public meeting in the Sergokalinsky District on July 9.

“The terrorists turned out to be from the Sergokalinsky district, and from respected families who had achieved certain results in society, in business, in sports,” he said.

Melikov emphasized that the district residents do not support the terrorists. He called the sweeping accusations against the Dagestanis and Sergokalinsk residents unfounded. The head of the republic noted that police officer Khabib Aliyev, who also comes from the Sergokalinsk district, was killed in the shootout with the bandits.

"The parents of police officer Khabib Aliyev are present here. We must talk about such parents who raised a hero, about an ordinary police officer who, while at his post and not being ready for an attack, shielded civilians with his body. They deserve to be talked about today and remembered forever," Melikov said.

The head of Dagestan noted that terrorists had been hindering the development of the region for 15 years. Because of their actions, normal businesses and successful enterprises from other regions did not enter the republic. It was also impossible to carry out construction, reconstruct roads and infrastructure, Melikov added.

As reported by the Regnum news agency, on June 23, after the terrorist attacks in Dagestan, law enforcement officers detained the head of the republic's Sergokalinsky district, Magomed Omarov, as they received information that two of his sons were involved in the attacks. It later became known that one of the official's sons was eliminated by security forces.

The next day, Melikov removed Omarov from his post. The head of the republic stated that in the event of terrorist attacks, there should be full responsibility.
What is the Lesson of Life, my father used to ask, having settled on the Socratic Method of parenting when we grew too old to spank. In this case, it clearly is Don’t let your children grow up to be ISIS, at least in that part of the world where dear Volodya Putin holds the reins.
After this, the former head of the district was detained. He was sentenced to ten days of administrative arrest for swearing in a public place. On July 5, Omarov was released, but the next day he was detained again on suspicion of committing economic crimes.

In addition, six of Omarov's sons were sentenced to administrative terms. They were found guilty of petty hooliganism. On July 8, it became known that they had all been released.

Russia's Investigative Committee said on July 8 that the suspects in the Dagestan attacks had been charged with terrorism. All had been remanded in custody.

On July 9, the Soviet District Court of Makhachkala ordered Omarov's arrest until September 5. He is accused of fraud and money laundering.
