[KavkazUzel] The case of two people accused of participating in the attack of militants Basayev and Khattab on Dagestan in 1999 has been brought to court.
As the "Caucasian Knot" wrote, the detention of the alleged participants in the attack of the Basayev and Khattab group on Dagestan continues after almost a quarter of a century. Thus, in December 2023, the Investigative Committee reported that a native of Dagestan, Ibragim Magomedov, had been detained, whom investigators considered to be a participant in the attack of militants Basayev and Khattab on the republic in 1999.
On August 7, 1999, more than a thousand armed fighters from Chechnya entered the territory of Dagestan under the leadership of Shamil Basayev and Jordanian Amir Khattab. Fighting continued in the republic for more than a month. Only on September 15, 1999, the Minister of Defense announced that the territory of Dagestan had been completely liberated, according to the “Caucasian Knot” certificate “ Invasion of Militants in Dagestan (1999).”
The case of two people accused of attacking military personnel in the Botlikhsky district in 1999 was transferred to the Southern District Military Court in Rostov-on-Don, the Prosecutor General's Office announced today.
“They are accused under Part 2 of Article 209 (participation in a stable armed group (gang), Article 279 (active participation in an armed rebellion for the purpose of forcibly changing the constitutional system of the Russian Federation and violating the territorial integrity of the Russian Federation), Article 317 (attack on the lives of military personnel in for the purpose of obstructing the legitimate activities of these persons to protect public order and ensure public safety) of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation,” says the publication on the department’s website.
According to investigators, the accused have been members since 1999 “of a gang created on the territory of the Chechen Republic by Basayev and Khattab.” “As part of which they participated in an armed rebellion in the area of the village of Rakhata, Botlikh district, where they attacked a military maneuver group,” the prosecutor’s office said.
Previously, the cases of more than 90 accused of the attack were also sent to court, some of them have already been sentenced to various terms of imprisonment, the publication notes.
The cases of participation in the gangs of Basayev and Khattab are of the same type and are often falsified, lawyer Narine Airapetyan previously told the Caucasian Knot. "The witnesses are the same everywhere. Five witnesses are usually taken - three classified witnesses and two open," she said.
Hayrapetyan emphasized that cases are being fabricated against innocent people as well. “When people did not participate, but under threat, including torture, other people are forced to testify against them. <...> For example, one of my clients, who is currently serving a sentence in the Ulyanovsk region, told me that he was under pressure in order to force him to testify on the events of 1999 against people whom he had never known before,” the lawyer noted.
