Attempt to set up training camp in Dagestan foiled
In Daghestan, an attempt to set up a camp for training militants has been foiled. A special operation netted two suspects who were found carrying 6 Shmel grenade launchers, a Kalashnikov automatic rifle, five grenades and 400 grams of TNT. On Sunday another person was detained. He had with him a topographical map with the inscription "General Staff. Restricted Use", a Kenwood radio station, as well as Wahhabi literature and audiocassettes. All the detained men were from a group which had previously been tasked with establishing a militant-training camp outside Khasavyurt, near Chechnya's eastern border. The late Khattab was head of the Islamic Army of Dagestan. Al-Walid will want to continue with that little project, with himself as Emir. Posted by: Fred Pruitt 2002-05-20 |
