The Muslim preacher Abu Umar of Sasitli (Israil Akhmednabiev) was named as the organizer of the network for the financial support of terrorists; funds for them were raised under the pretext of building mosques.
On December 7, law enforcers searched the house of the preacher's brother, the "Kavkaz.Realii" has reported.
"He travelled abroad more than once; he always passed customs posts without any problems. He hasn't even been on the 'prophylactic registry'," said Akhmednabiev Senior.
