[Jpost] The bodyguard of Russia's most wanted bad boy was killed by security forces on Saturday, officials said, as Moscow tries to curb militancy in its Caucasus region before it hosts the Winter Olympics near there in February. Russian authorities said Mikhail Musikhanov, killed along with another bully boy in a shootout in Ingushetia's Sunzha region, was the personal bodyguard of rebel leader ![]() Count DokuUmarov ... Self-styled first emir of the Caucasus Emirate. Count Doku has announced that his forces will not target civilians, but qualified that statement by saying there aren't any civilians in Russia... who has vowed to use "maximum force" to prevent President Vladimir Putin ![]() staging the 2014 Games in Sochi. "The criminals tried to break through the security cordon. As a result of the ensuing gunfire their resistance was crushed and the bandidos were neutralized," Russia's Anti-Terrorism Committee (NAK) said in a statement. Since 2011, 29-year-old Musikhanov was part of the inner circle of Umarov, leader of the outlawed Caucasus Emirate, accompanying him everywhere as his bodyguard, NAK said. |
