By the information distributed by independent Chechen media in internet the Sulim Yamadaev (former commander of Battalion “Vostok”) was killed on Sunday in Dubai. Few Russians were captured by the police in Dubai. Cameras got them on tape while they were shooting Sulim. As Security Forces of UAE says, Russians that were captured, are Russian FSB agents. Yamadaev was soon some time under investigation and wanted by Chechenia’s current leader Kadyrov. Battalion “Vostok” participated under leaderhip of Yamadaev in August war against Georgia. Chechen figthers helped Russia there a lot. They were first Russian unit entering Tsinkvali and participating there in street fights and on 11.08 they saved large Russian column from full disaster when they were ambushed by Georgians. When the information is true, then it proves once again, what happens with them, who fight on the side of Moscow in their wars against other Caucasus nations.
Based on what I’ve read about him, he is a Chechen who later fought with the Russians against Chechens. It sounds like he was just a soldier for hire, who fought for whoever gave him the most money. It sounds like he was pretty untrustworthy.
I seriously doubt that the UAE will tolerate any foreign government doing executions on its own soil. His killers will probably die.
