Sergei Mitrokhin: Act of terror in Grozny confirms that war against everyone is going on in Chechnya

Moscow, May 9, 2004. The act of terror in Grozny confirms that the situation in Chechnya is far from stable and war against everyone is going on there. Such a statement was made by Deputy Head of the YABLOKO faction Sergei Mitrokhin to a Rosbalt correspondent. It is not obvious that the act of terror was performed by Basayev s allies, noted Mitrokhin. Representatives of some competing clan could be the organisers of the assassination of Kadyrov.

According to the Deputy Head of the YABLOKO party, the clan-based system of power formed in Chechnya is extremely inefficient and dangerous. The fact that Kadyrov's son was the head of security demonstrates that the president of Chechnya did not trust anyone, stressed Mitrokhin. Therefore there is nothing surprising in such developments. This had to happen sooner or later.

Today in the morning there was a powerful explosion in the Dinamo stadium in Grozny during the celebrations of the Victory Day there. According to doctors and personnel of the Ministry for Emergencies, the number of victims from the act of terror amounts to from 30 to 40 people, with about 50 people injured. The Regional Head-Quarters for Managing the Anti-Terror Operation confirmed the information on the death of the President of Chechnya Kadyrov.
