The next Genghiz Khan of All Russia (plus the Instagram)? Were Chechen Security Personnel Responsible For Nemtsov's Death? "Nonstate media, including Novaya Gazeta, have suggested that Nemtsov was under threat from Kadyrov's own security personnel for his repeated criticism of the Chechen leader."
The next Genghiz Khan of All Russia (plus the Instagram)? For many in both Russia and the West, the Kremlin is inevitably the prime suspect in the assassination of opposition leader Boris Nemtsov. But the possibility of a Chechen connection should not be dismissed out of hand, given Nemtsov's repeated criticism of Chechen Republic head Ramzan Kadyrov. Were Chechen Security Personnel Responsible For Nemtsov's Death? Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov followed suit, writing on Instagram , "there is no doubt that the murder of Nemtsov was organized by Western intelligence agencies who seek by any means to create internal conflict in Russia." M.N.: The hat is burning on the thief's head, as the Russian saying goes. (Nonstate media, including Novaya Gazeta, have suggested that Nemtsov was under threat from Kadyrov's own security personnel for his repeated criticism of the Chechen leader.) _________________________________________
