Killer shot at Yamadaev from a silent pistol "Gyurza"

The killer, who attempted on Isa Yamadaev, a brother of Sulim Yamadaev, ex-commander of the "Vostok" battalion, on July 28 in Moscow, was armed with a silent pistol - firearm of special units of the GRU (Russian Military Intelligence) and FSB (Federal Security Bureau).

"Isa was shot from a silent pistol. There is such pistol, named 'Gyurza'. It's used to arm special troops of the GRU and FSB, not ordinary army or militia units," asserts one of Yamadaevs' relatives, who himself earlier served in the "Vostok" special-purpose battalion.

The source gave no other details of the failed attempt on Isa Yamadaev, who is a working GRU officer. Also, he did not know about the progress in investigating the case and who was considered to be the customer of the crime.

"We know nothing about the investigation of the attempt on Isa. This is closed information," said the source.
