| [RFE/RL] A militant suspected of involvement in the murder of an investigator in Dagestan has been extradited from the Czech Republic to Russia. The Russian Interior Ministry said that Tagir Israpilov was escorted by Interpol agents and Russian Interior Ministry officials while being extradited. Investigators say that Israpilov and other militants killed a local investigator in Dagestan and robbed his apartment in 2010. Russian officials issued an international arrest warrant for him in October 2011. Israpilov lived in Germany for a time under an alias. In 2011, German authorities extradited him to the Czech Republic, where he was arrested on document-forgery charges. |
