| Basayev's a $10,000,000 man |
| 2006-01-13 |
 Chechen First Deputy Prime Minister Ramzan Kadyrov has offered a $10-million reward for the head of warlord Shamil Basayev. Kadyrov said in an interview with the Moskovskiye Novosti weekly published on Friday that he knows nothing of the notorious terrorist's whereabouts. "But I offer $10 million for Basayev's head," he said. "He [Basayev] stayed both in Dagestan and Kabardino-Balkaria. I have always said that eliminating Basayev is my holy duty as a Muslim, a citizen of the Russian Federation and a policeman. If I knew who is guarding him, I would find him. But he himself is a good strategist and warrior." |
