Law enforcers identify one of men killed in explosion in Dagestan

One of the men blown up inside a car in Dagestan was identified as Ramazan Rashidov, born in 1987. This was reported by sources from the law enforcement bodies. Earlier, residents of Makhachkala have complained about the kidnapping of a man with the same name.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that on June 27, a blown-up BMW car with fragments of two bodies inside it was found near the 831st km of the federal highway "Caucasus" in the Karabudakhkent District. The power of the explosion was about five kilograms of TNT equivalent. Law enforcers suggest that an improvised explosive device (IED), transported for organization of a terror act, detonated inside the car.

"According to the preliminary information, Ramazan R., one of the men blown up inside the car, was an extremist and was wanted. The identification of the other man is underway," the "Life.ru" reports with reference to a source.

Earlier, it has been reported about the disappearance of Kaspiysk residents Ramazan Rashidov, born in 1987, and Shamil Ramazanov, born in 1990. Their relatives claim that they were kidnapped by people in uniform on June 16 and 17.
