| A militant wanted for crimes has been captured in the Chechen town of Achkhoi-Martan. The man was involved in a series of terrorist attacks and acts of sabotage staged by his armed group against federal troops in 2000-2002, a local law enforcement source told Interfax-AVN by phone on Friday. Two grenade launchers, a sub-machine gun, five shells, 12 hand grenades, 100 cartridges, and an improvised explosive device were confiscated from four caches found in the republic's Vedeno, Nozhai-Yurt, Sunzha and Shatoi districts. |
