Reuters gives a brief account.

Conflicting news in abundance, isn't it?
After Anna Politkovskaya & Alexander Litvinenko, seems like the tolls of the Chechen conflict has now reached Dubai!
I doubt though Russian intel had anything to do with this. And if they were, they did a really sloppy job and deserve their well-earned time-out in the Al-Wathba Slammer.
As for Ramzan Kadyrov, he's just a common two-bit thug-in-charge. The day Putin does not require his services, he too can join the list.
LOL. Nothing in the UAE happens without the govt knowing about it.
That's all I'm saying.
:(
I'm not a communist, am I welcome in here ?!
Yup, and they've arrested all the guilty - just like they did after the Wafi jewellery heist.
To Kyle.
Yes, indeed, news are very confusing.
But most disturbing is that this happened right before the desision to stop a 'special anti-terrorist campaign' in Chechnja.
Somewhere in a midst of a Caucasus conflict chechen rebel Sulim switched sides and became a one of the most popular commanders and a serious rival to present chechen president, Kadyrov.
My best guess is that federals leaked the information on his whereabouts to killers.
BTW, the owner of Phoenix aviation (sharjah) was killed 5 days ago. Eugen Hoprov, a partner in crime of infamous Victor But; both involved in selling arms and ammunition to Africa.
I wish we, Russians did not export crime to the outside world, only matrioshka and perestroika :)
ABT, regarding local government and their knowledge. In spite of public lashings and obstruction, local intelligence forces are pretty efficient. We hugely underestimate them. :)
Kaaaa... kalinka, kalinka, kalinka moya.
V sadu yagoda malinka, malinka moya.
only matrioshka and perestroika :)

Da, I agree - LOL
And borsch & homemade vodka. And if possible, a Russian version of Puzata Hata :)

Thats what I meant. You took my comment the whole other way. Actually the UAE intelligence is VERY efficient. So re-read my comment. NOTHING happens in the UAE without the govt's knowledge.
At JBR? Christ on a colonic, this whole place is going nutty!
did someone die then?
I heard summick else.
and ABIT, yes, you are right about the intelligence services here. Not to be confused with the RTA;)
