 | "Killing of two Chechens in Baku is Russian provocation", ex-president says |
"Killing of two Chechens in Baku is a provocation masterminded by Russia’s secret service to embroil between Azerbaijan and Chechnya", ex-president of Chechnya Zalimkhan Yandarbiyev told AssA-Irada Friday commenting on the murder of two Chechens in a night bar in Baku on January 24.
Mr. Yandarbiyev said such provocation attempts were made during Russian President Putin's visit to Baku.
According to him, the law-enforcement bodies and the government of Azerbaijan should be on alert for such incidents.
At midnight on January 24, two Chechens were killed in a night bar in Baku following a shoot-out with the bar staff. Several security persons of the bar were also injured during the clash.
A criminal case has been started by the Nasimi district prosecutor's office.*
