Chechen leader threatens Uzbek officials
Ramzan Kadyrov has treated the situation in Uzbekistan as provocation and threatened to respond according to Chechen traditions for slander to two officials who, according to the media, were the targets of an assassination attempt organized with the participation of Chechen authorities.
The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that the head of Chechnya had treated the version about the "Chechen trace" in the attack on the car of a former civil servant in Uzbekistan as "fake news".
According to his version, "pro-Western media" are fanning rumours "about discord in the family of Shavkat Mirziyoyev, President of Uzbekistan".
Kadyrov has considered the events of recent months in Uzbekistan as an attempt to "break the system." "This is a well-thought-out scenario that threatens the country's leadership," he has stated and called on the members of the president's family to "dispel dirty rumours." He recommended that the officials who, according to media reports, were the targets of the assassination attempt, Komil Allamzhonov and Dmitry Li, "not to play the victims' role."
According to the RBC, this is about a shooting at night on October 26 in a suburb of Tashkent. Two unidentified men fired at a car and fled; there were no victims. A case of attempted premeditated murder has been opened.
The sources of the "Gazeta.uz" outlet have clarified that apart from the driver, the 40-year-old Komil Allamzhonov was in the car. He had headed the information policy department of the presidential administration of Uzbekistan, was fired, and talked about plans to leave the civil service for the private sector.
