Chechens bump off prosecutor
Lieutenant Colonel Roman Grigorian, deputy military prosecutor for the northern Caucasus region of southern Russia died when assailants opened fire on his car in Argun, Chechnya. Grigorian died instantly, and his driver was rushed to hospital seriously wounded. Earlier Sunday, Chechen rebels said eight Russian soldiers had been killed and another 17 injured in a series of hit-and-run guerrilla attacks in Grozny. A spokesman for Chechen leader Aslan Maskhadov said three Russian soldiers were killed and another four injured when their armoured personnel carrier hit a remote-controlled mine.
