[KavkazUzel] The case of Stavropol resident Rustam Yarbuldyev, whom investigators believe to have participated in the attack by Basayev's militants on Dagestan, has been referred to court. 

As the "Caucasian Knot" wrote, in June 2023, the FSB reported the detention of Rustam Yarbuldyev in Stavropol Krai in connection with the attack on the Botlikh District of Dagestan in 1999.
When was he arrested? Spetsnaz doesn’t turn away from the hunt no matter how long it takes, it seems.
 On August 7, 1999, more than a thousand armed fighters from Chechnya under the leadership of  Shamil Basayev  and Jordanian  Amir Khattab entered Dagestan. Fighting continued in the republic for more than a month. Only on September 15, 1999, Russian Defense Minister Igor Sergeyev reported that Dagestan had been completely liberated, according to the "Kavkazsky Uzel" report "Militant Invasion of Dagestan (1999)".

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.

"Caucasian Knot" also wrote that Toymaskhan Adzhinyazov and Kaitarb Nasyrov, whom investigators consider to be participants in the attack on the Botlikh region of Dagestan in 1999, rejected in court the charges brought against them for mutiny and attempted murder of the military.
