Security Council to check information about Dymovskiy's links with foreigners
Yuri Baluevskiy, deputy secretary of the Security Council, said today that the version of involvement of NGOs, foreign ones inclusive, in the activities of Militia Major Alexei Dymovskiy is not confirmed and needs a further check.
The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that earlier a certain source from the Department of Internal Security (DIS) of Russia's MIA said that the Major's public statements are backed up by NGOs, financed from abroad, in particular, the US Agency for International Development (USAID).
Mr Baluevskiy has noted that in his criticism of militia bosses "somewhere in something, maybe, Dymovskiy was right." According to his version, it is not yet worth making hasty conclusions that some "other-worldly forces" stand behind Major's words, as the "Gazeta.Ru" reports.
Meanwhile, it became known that Dymovskiy told the workers of the prosecutor's office of the Krasnodar Territory about a number of violations in law enforcement bodies, which he had not mentioned earlier.
The "Novaya Gazeta" writes with reference to the Major that members of organized crime are recruited to the militia, bosses order to plant evidences on innocent people and imprison them in order to improve the crime solving rate; and some MIA employees are trading drugs.
The Sydney Morning Herald writes that Alexei Dymovskiy's revelations made him well-known and deprived him of his work. The paper notes that although high bosses reject all the charges moved by the disfavoured militiaman, among ordinary Russians his statement had great resonance.
