"Operative mujahads' grouping" takes responsibility for attempt on Evkurov

Today, hackers attacked the website of the Ministry of Press of Chechnya, having placed a message in its main page that the responsibility for the attempt on President of Ingushetia Yunus-Bek Evkurov was taken by some "special operative group mujahads' group". The message also wrote that it was "Allah's punishment".

The website also placed a warning addressed to President of Chechnya Ramzan Kadyrov and stating that Kadyrov will soon follow Evkurov.

The "Interfax" was told by an informed source in law enforcement bodies of the Southern Federal District of Russia that currently the website of the Ministry of Press of Chechnya is closed; and no reaction to the above message by Chechnya's official bodies and federal centre is known yet.

Let us note here that this week technical malfunctions appeared also in the website of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ingushetia. The resource is out of operation for the third day already, as reported by the "Infox.ru" Agency. The Ministry gave no reason of the failure saying that specialists were trying to eliminate the problem.

See earlier reports:

"Militant Aliev was involved in attempt on Evkurov, special agencies suspect", "Ingush militants take responsibility for murdering Aza Gazgireeva and Bashir Aushev", "Kadyrov offers money to residents of Ingushetia for information about militants".
