Delimkhanov's cousin interrogated on Ruslan Yamadaev's murder

Within the murder case of the Hero of Russia Ruslan Yamadaev, the Investigatory Committee at the Prosecutor's Office (ICPO) has interrogated Suleiman Geremeev, a cousin of Adam Delimkhanov, Deputy of the State Duma from Chechnya. As reported by an ICPO source, Geremeev was interrogated in Moscow as a witness.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that this spring three natives of Chechnya - Aslambek Dadaev, Timur Isaev and Elimpasha Khatsuev - were detained as suspects of murdering Ruslan Yamadaev.

"We had information that Geremeev could communicate with the persons detained for murdering Ruslan Yamadaev; therefore, we had questions to him," the ICPO source told the "Rosbalt".

According to his story, Suleiman Geremeev is a cousin of the State Duma Deputy from Chechnya Adam Delimkhanov and brother of Vakha Geremeev, head of the Interior Department for the Shelkovskoy District of Chechnya, the "Gazeta.Ru" writes.
