The regional operational headquarters have reported that information about the hostage was obtained yesterday and the military conducted an operation together with FSB operatives to free him. The name of the released hostage has not been disclosed. The name of the hostage-taker has been established and it turns out that he was on a list of wanted criminals. Hey! They didn't say whether the hostage-taker was a terrorist or a just a normal crook... |
