Special operation casualties
Two Chechen police officers were wounded in a special operation in Grozny on 27 April. A rebel who put up armed resistance was killed in the skirmish.
"An active member of the field commander Munayev's illegal armed formation was found yesterday in Grozny's Oktiabrskii district. The bandit put up armed resistance and was destroyed in the skirmish. Two of our officers were wounded. A search of the house where the destroyed rebel lived led to uncovering a cache with arms there," a police officer said. The interlocutor did not give the name of the killed rebel referring to the need to keep investigation details secret.
