The identity of three people involved in the death of Chechen commander Amir Khattab has been established, Chechen sources reported. One of them, a Dagestani citizen who fought on the mojahedin side in 1994-96, was executed in early May, according to a decision of the shari'ah court.
His name was Ibragim, but Kavkaz-Tsentr news agency has no details about this case. Chechen mohajedin are searching for the two other people accused of involvement in Amir Khattab's death.
According to an Al-Jazira report, Ibragim Alauri, an ethnic Avar, "was shot dead on charges of treason and collaboration with the intelligence service of Dagestan."
