The investigation of the criminal case against Rustam Yarbuldyev, a native and resident of the Neftekumsky District of Stavropol Krai, has been completed. He is accused of participating in a gang, armed rebellion and attempted murder of military personnel, the Russian Investigative Committee reported today. According to investigators, Yarbuldyev had been a member of a gang created by Basayev  and Khattab since 1999, and participated in an armed rebellion in the Botlikh region of Dagestan, during which security forces were attacked. As a result, 33 servicemen were killed and another 34 were injured, according to a statement on the department's website. The criminal case has been sent to court for consideration on the merits, the investigation reported.
