Kadyrov confirmed the authenticity of the video execution of the Russian spy

The head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, said that in the distributed “Islamic state» video of the execution of a Russian was a Chechen.

“This Russian is a Chechen. His head was cut off. There are confirmed facts. I don’t believe that he worked there for someone. In my opinion, he was set up... the Chechens know him, remember him and will not leave him. Whoever stabbed a person from our state should not live... We will send him to the next world, we will give him a one-way ticket,” Kadyrov said.

An Interfax source in the Russian intelligence services doubted that the executed man was related to Russian intelligence activities. According to him, if the militants really exposed a spy in their midst, then they “would definitely use him in some kind of negotiation processes, which would bring greater benefits to the terrorists than simply killing him.”

“Forum” wrote that “Islamic State” on December 2 published video in which, according to terrorists, the murder of a “Russian spy” was filmed. On the recording, the hostage admits that he worked for Russian intelligence. The video is called “You Russians will be disappointed and humiliated.”
