Chechen 'emir' iced
An influential Chechen militant Adam Saltamirzayev, better known by his alias Black Adam, was killed in Chechnya's Shali district in the course of a special operation conducted by federal forces. According to local law enforcers, Saltamirzayev was an emir, or a spiritual leader, of Wahhabis based in the village of Mesker-Yurt. The militant was killed in a clash with law enforcers. It turned out that he had been armed with an assault rifle, cartridges, and grenades. Pretty daggone well-armed for a holy man, wasn't he? Posted by: Fred Pruitt 2002-05-28 |
