Report that Ingush leader gave money to terror chief called 'a provocation'
2013-04-03
The leader of Russia's republic of Ingushetia calls an accusation that the republic's prime minister has paid money to an Islamic terrorist militant leader "a provocation."

Speaking to reporters in Ingushetia's capital, Magas, Yunus-Bek Yevkurov said that an interview that a former Islamic terrorist militant gave to Russia's state-controlled television channel must be associated with Ingushetia's leadership election scheduled for September.

In the interview, aired on March 31, the man claimed that the leader of the region's Islamic insurgency, Doku Umarov, gets $1 million every month from Ingush Prime Minister Musa Chiliyev to secure personal protection from attacks.
