US offers $5 million for information about Doku Umarov
2011-05-26
The US announced that it has offering $5 million for information on the whereabouts of Russia's most wanted terrorist, Doku Umarov.

"The United States is announcing today that it has included Doku Umarov in its Rewards for Justice program, offering a reward of up to $5 million for information that leads to the location of this key terrorist leader," said a joint statement of the presidents of the United States and Russia on cooperation in counterterrorism.

"The action taken today against Umarov supports the U.S. effort to degrade Umarov's ability to exert operational and leadership control over Caucasus Emirates. We are determined to eliminate the group's ability to direct violent attacks and to disrupt, dismantle, and defeat Umarov's network."
