12 Beslan doublers arrested
 Twelve militants who made part of the doubling group when the Beslan terrorist act was prepared have been detained in Chechnya, RIA Novosti was told by Chechen Interior Ministry spokesman Ruslan Atsayev. In his words, the militants were detained by groups numbering 2-3 people during the last 2 days in the republic's Achkhoi-Martan district. The source said the gang was led by an Umar Dimayev who rendered armed resistance when being detained and was killed. "According to participants of his gang, they were to have seized an administrative building in North Ossetia, but received an order to retreat after it became known that the school had been seized in Beslan," said Atsayev.Posted by: Dan Darling 2005-03-08 |
