The Tajik and Iranian nationals who were sentenced to prison terms in the United Arab Emirates for murdering Hero of Russia Sulim Yamadayev, a native of Chechnya, have been released from prison and deported home. This comes in a statement for the RIA Novosti news agency by the Tajik Vice-Consul in Dubai, Saidmuhammed Salihov.
The crime, perpetrated in the UAE in late March 2009, sent ripples due to the Yamadayev family differences with the Chechen President.

I addressed this plea also to the United Nations, European Union and other highest international institutions, with support of tens of thousands of people from all over the world. Numerous demonstrations, peace marches, hunger strikes and other events were undertaken to draw these bodies’ attention to Chechnya situation, but all pleas for launching an impartial international investigation in Chechnya had been either ignored or responded evasively. I would like to remind you that Russian Federation, or Russia, joined Council of Europe on February 28, 1996, in the midst of the ...

Window on Eurasia: Chechen Internet ‘Developing Not Badly,’ Insider SaysPaul Goble
Staunton, April 17 – Given the role of the Internet and social media in the spread of popular revolts in many countries, there has been a great deal of speculation about how these new media are developing in places like Chechnya, but most of the commentary on such issues has come from outsiders rather than direct participants.

The paper’s Bagdat Tumalayev who writes frequently about new media in the Caucasus but relatively seldom about developments in that sector in Chechnya reports that "a Chechen blogger who wishes to remain anonymous has decided to talk about the state of ...

April 16 (Interfax) - There are no serious signs indicating that prominent North Caucasus warlord Doku Umarov is alive, head of Chechnya Ramzan Kadyrov said. "Since the moment an airstrike was carried out upon this area [the Sunzha district of Ingushetia], there have been no serious signs indicating that Umarov is alive," Kadyrov told journalists. "The allegations that he called somewhere should not be taken seriously, because the voice could have been faked," he said. It was reported earlier that Umarov called Radio Liberty during a live program after it had been reported that he might have been killed in the operation in Ingushetia. "We know that Abdullayev [Supyan Abdullayev, who was killed in the operation in Ingushetia], the main ideologist of the militants in the North Caucasus, is always near Umarov. This is evident from intelligence we ...
