A Chechen militant suspected of transporting weapons and explosives used in the Dubrovka theater siege and the McDonald’s bombing in Moscow in 2002 has been detained in Grozny, Interfax reported, citing law enforcement authorities in Chechnya. The militant, identified as Grozny resident Ibragim Musayev, has been involved in illegal militant groups fighting federal forces in Chechnya since 1999. He made money transfers to militants planning terrorist activities. Police are currently determining whether he was involved in Sunday’s bombing in Grozny that killed Chechen President Akhmad Kadyrov. Police and search units have been trying to locate him for some time, the news agency quoted a local interior ministry press center as saying. An investigation is currently underway to identify his accomplices. |
