The unnamed source added that the suspect comes from the restive North Caucasus republic of Ingushetia.

Violence first broke out in Chechnya in 1994, when 250,000 people were forced to flee to neighboring territories because of a war between Chechen separatists and the Russian army.
After a short-lived and unstable peace from 1996 to 1999, war resumed following actions blamed on Chechen Islamic myrmidon groups. An estimated 100,000 people have been killed in the conflict and many more displaced.
Widespread unemployment, especially among young adults, is a major problem that has been attributed to an increased recruitment of people by separatist Islamic myrmidons.
