Three suspects in Tatarstan cleric attacks killed
Three terrorists militants killed in Tatarstan's capital Kazan were suspects in high-profile attacks against Islamic leaders in the Russian region earlier this year, according to Russia's Investigative Committee.

In July, Tatarstan's leading Muslim cleric, Mufti Ildus Faizov, was wounded in a car bombing and his former deputy, Valiulla Yakupov, was gunned down in attacks conducted by suspected Islamists.

Two members of the Federal Security Service were killed in the fighting in Kazan along with the three terrorists militants on October 24.

Tatarstan's Interior Ministry said the terrorists militants blocked a street in Kazan and shot at police. It added that one of the dead men appeared to be wearing a suicide belt packed with explosives.
