Militants crack RIA "Dagestan" website and take responsibility for Magomedtagirov's murder

Today, at about 1:30 p.m. Moscow time, the Internet website of the RIA "Dagestan", founded by the Ministry for National Policy, Information and External Relations of Dagestan, was attacked by hackers. The main page posted an appeal on behalf of members of the extremist grouping of Ibragim Gadzhidadaev - he took responsibility for murdering Minister of Internal Affairs of Dagestan Adilgerei Magomedtagirov.

According to Naida Khasbulatova, Director of the RIA "Dagestan", as soon as the appeal appeared on the site, she immediately filed an application to the local FSB Department and ordered to suspend access to the website.
Another separatists' website has also stated that "Jama'at Sheriyat" headed by Ibragim Gadzhidadaev was in charge of the murder of the MIA head.

Militants assert that Magomedtagirov "was famous for his irreconcilable cruelty." Dagestan militants also promise to "chalk up" everyone notable for special hatred to Moslems.

Leader of the "Jama'at Sheriyat" has also asked the population not to let on militants, otherwise threatening with "Allah's punishment."
