Three young men abducted, found dead
Remains of three young men, who fell victims to extrajudicial execution, were found in south-east Chechnya. The dead bodies were found in the forest not far from the village of Gansol-Chu, Chechnya's Nozhay-Yurt district.
"Remains of three young men were in a shallow pit. They all were finished off by control shots at their heads," an officer of the Chechen Interior Ministry said to the Caucasian Knot correspondent. "Later the killed men were identified. They were Aslan Usmayev, and Vakhit and Abubakar Abuyevs, residents of the village of Alleroi, the Kurchaloi district. They were captured by rebels from Akhmed Avdorkhanov's group, who assaulted the Alleroy village on the night of May 1. To all appearances, all the three men were shot dead the same night."
