Six residents of Chechnya are suspected of complicity to liquidated militants

On August 17, five persons were detained in the city of Grozny as suspects of helping the members of the armed underground, liquidated on August 8 in the Chechen capital. Another suspect was detained by operative agents in the Sunzha District of Chechnya.

"All of them were helpers of Elbrus Ibragimov and Zaur Elmurzaev, active members of illegal armed formations," a source from the MIA of Chechnya told the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent.

The source asserts that all the detainees have already pled guilty and noted that after detention of one of the suspects, power agents managed to trace the whole group.

An activist of a local NGO told the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent that the detained helpers to Elmurzaev and Ibragimov are employees of local power agencies. The source from the MIA neither confirmed nor rejected this information.
