"When I came into one of the rooms, I saw an unidentified man in a mask, who was looking for something behind the sofa. When he saw me, he abruptly pulled his hand away; and then we all were brought out into the yard," said Zarema Sheikhmuradova.

According to Zarema Sheikhmuradova, behind the sofa in the place where the policemen had earlier put his hand, the found some package. "I immediately explained that this package was not ours, but they wouldn't hear anything. Policemen called a group of explosive experts.
