Ex-members of disbanded detachment surrender weapons in Chechnya
2006-11-16
(Interfax) - Ex-members of the disbanded Gorets tactical group, formerly led by the wanted commander Movladi Baisarov, have surrendered a large arsenal to Chechen police. The Gorets detachment was disbanded at the order of a federal executive agency and its former members were attached to other units. "Thirty-eight pieces of fire arms and over 6,000 pieces of ammunition were surrendered in the village of Pobedinskoye in Groznensky district on Tuesday, where the group was based," the Chechen Interior Ministry informed Interfax on Wednesday.

Chechen Interior Minister Ruslan Alkhanov told Interfax on October 25 that Baisarov, a native of Chechnya's Groznensky District, was reportedly hiding in Moscow. "He was entered on a wanted list on suspicion of organizing abductions and murders," Alkhanov said.
