Resident of Chechnya detained for killing three law enforcers in 2000
On June 21, in Urus-Martan, agents of secret services detained a 37-year-old resident of Chechnya, suspected of killing three officers of the federal forces almost 17 years ago.
The murder of three officers of the Russian FSB and the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MIA), in which the man is suspected, was committed in an automobile market in Urus-Martan in October 2000, reports a source from the law enforcement agencies of the ChechenRepublic. Unidentified man approached the officers from the rear and shot and killed them from a Makarov pistol. Then, he "opened fire in the air from a submachine gun seized from one of the killed officers to scare the people who came to the market" and disappeared, the source explained to the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent.
On June 21, Rasambek Bekmurzaev, a 37-year-old resident of Chechnya, was detained by agents of secret services in Urus-Martan "due to operational information." According to investigators, after the murder of three officers, he was admitted to a militant grouping led by Arbi Baraev, a well-known field commander. In recent years, the suspect worked as a taxi driver in Chechnya.
The detainee was placed to the SIZO (pre-trial prison) and already confessed to the crime, the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent was informed by a source.
