An
article published in the Russian daily newspaper Kommersant has alleged
that nearly 30 suicide bomber commandos received education at a madrasa
in Turkey.
The
news came in the aftermath of a Monday suicide bomb attack on two
Moscow subway stations that killed at least 38 people. In an article
appearing in yesterday’s Kommersant, it was speculated that the Moscow
attacks were revenge for successful government operations in the
northern Caucasus against terrorist organizations earlier this month.
In those operations, several leading north Caucasus militants were
killed, including Said Buryatski, Salambek Ahmadov, Anozr Astemirov and
Abu Haled. Buryatski, whose real name is Aleksandr Tikhomirov, had been
suspected of involvement in suicide bomb attacks in 2009 targeting
Ingushetia President Yunus-Bek Yevkurov and the Nazran Police
Department as well as a bomb attack on a train last year.
Russian
investigators speaking to Kommersant alleged that Buryatski had
recruited nearly 30 people willing to be suicide bombers in Chechnya
and Ingushetia and sent them to Turkey for training. "Buryatski sent
nearly 30 potential suicide commandos to one of the madrasas in Turkey.
Following their training, they all returned to the Caucasus. This team
began working under Buryatski’s command. Nine of them have successfully
carried out missions, and the others are currently being sought. These
suicide commandos may also have been sent to Moscow to revenge
Buryatski’s death,” the paper said.
