Two members of illegal armed groups have been killed and another two have been detained during police search operations in Chechnya, Maj. Gen. Ilya Shabalkin, spokesman for the regional headquarters for the counter-terrorism operation in the North Caucasus, told Interfax on Wednesday. Two rebels were killed outside the village of Geldagan in the republic's Kurchaloi district after they failed to obey police orders, Shabalkin said.

"Stop or we'll shoot!" |
Two members of illegal armed units were detained in the village of Khambi-Irze of the Achkhoi-Martan district and in Grozny.
"Into the paddy wagon wit' yez!"
"Don't kill me!" |
Two terrorist attacks have been prevented in Chechnya over the past 24 hours, thanks to the discovery of a remote-controlled homemade explosive device in Grozny's Zavodskoy district and a landmine one kilometer southwest of the Vedeno district's village of Guni, Shabalkin said. |
