Former Russian colonel detained on suspicions of complicity in terrorism

23.12.2010, 21.03

MOSCOW, December 23 (Itar-Tass) - Former Colonel of the Russian Military Intelligence Service /GRU/, Vladimir Kvachkov, who was recently exonerated of charges with attempting on the life of Anatoly Chubais, the ex-CEO of the UES of Russia power monopoly, is suspected of complicity in terrorism and plans to organize an armed revolt, sources at Moscow's Lefortovo district court told Itar-Tass Thursday.

"The court has received a petition from the Investigations Department of the Federal Security Service /FSB/ that contains a request to administer custody as a pretrial measure for citizen Kvachkov, born 1948," a source said.

He added that Kvachkov is suspected of criminal offenses falling under Clause I of Article 205 of the Russian Criminal Code /recruiting and involvement of individuals into terrorist activity/, as well as under Articles 20 and 279 /an attempt to organize an armed revolt/."

A spokeswoman for Moscow's Lefortovo district court said the case had the "classified" stamp on it and that is why the hearings on request would be held behind closed doors.

At the time of reporting Kvachkov and his lawyer were familiarizing themselves with materials in the case.

Armed revolt? Does it mean a separatist rebellion? Is this man a Muslim? Lots of mystery here.

Chances are equally good he did nothing other than oppose Putin in some scheme. Russia is reverting to it’s old Soviet ways.

What Churchill said.

“Chances are equally good he did nothing other than oppose Putin in some scheme. Russia is reverting to it’s old Soviet ways.”

Agreed. Putin is a gangster, and you can’t take his word about anyone else.

The only one in Russia fit to rule the country is in the gulag:

I wonder if it's related to this:

Terrorist Magas gave up corrupt officials to FSB

Saturday, December 18th, 2010

In years past, gangs in the North Caucasus were financed not only from abroad, but also by corrupt officials, drug traffickers, criminal gangs, automobile theft, and robbery. The head of the FSB in Ingushetia, Vladimir Gurba, announced this on Saturday at a press conference.

"For us the most urgent thing remaining is that many officials who worked in the government organs at one time or another have engaged in providing support to the activities of the militant underground," he said. According to him, these officials have been "given up by detained militant leader Magas."

Under this moniker acted terrorist Ali Taziev, who was arrested by FSB officers in June of this year. According to investigators, he was involved in a series of high-profile crimes, including an assassination attempt on the president of Ingushetia, Yunus-Bek Evkurov.

According Gurba, with regards to the suspected officials, "we have carried out and are carrying out investigations in terms of reinforcing materials proving their financing of the militant underground. We have gone through the case materials of those individuals named by Magas in order to start corruption trials," said the FSB branch chief. According to him, "if you look at Magas' net worth, it is several million dollars."

Speaking of foreign financial support of militants, Gurba noted that the activities of foreign terrorist centers were aimed at destabilizing the situation in the North Caucasus.

In June of 2010, Militant leader Ali Taziev, also known as Magas, was captured without a fight in a private residence on the outskirts of the Ingush town of Malgobek. The detainee was involved in the abduction of relatives of the former president of Ingushetia, Zyazikov. In 2009, he organized the bombings at the Interior Ministry building in Nazran, killing a large number of police officers. In 2004, Taziev, together with Shamil Basayev, organized an attack on Nazran. Since 2004 there have been active measures carried out in the search for him, and the investigative department of the FSB is looking into crimes committed by the arrested militant.

LOL. Khodorkovski is a known Soros’s agent. That is a reason behind his prison term. Putin had no idea to share power under NWO.

Interesting... Do you have any links to discussions of a Khodorkovski-Soros connections that you could share?

Thanks,

Why don’t you just type ‘soros khodorkovski’ in Google?
If you can read Russian you can find more than that in Russian search engines.

Not a Muslim, he is related to the extreme nationalists. He is against all western influence. His ideals are the prerevolutionary extreme nationalist movements. Check out the videos

Ideology: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFw15scH0Gs

Speech Nov 4: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9b5xJDf0FQ0

Note that he is standing close to Dmitry Demushkin the leader of the National Socialist Movement Slavic Unity, abbreviated SS.

Background:

He is arrested until February 23, 2011.

So he supports Eurasian Movement. I guess Putin is too westernized. This movement could be an indicator of where Russia is heading politically. For better or worse, they are going back to their roots.

At the time of his arrest Mikhail Khodorkovski was must richer than George Soros.

Is it possible Soros derangement syndrome is now pandemic? Perhaps George Soros even makes milk go sour?

Or perhaps you are a KGB agent of influence sent here to defame Mr. Khodorkovski? In this insane world I’m willing to believe almost anything.

Don’t you see KGB agents under your bed?

And what you know first hand on an issue to ‘fame’ Mr. Khodorkovski?

He is not Jesus. If you think one may become a billionare under a Russian cleptocracy using any but criminal talents you might be plain ...nevermind.

Also he was a bad poker player who overplayed his hand pushing liberal agenda there. All his collegues crooks who were a bit smarter are still looting there as ‘oligarhs’.

Can I request Anna Chapman? Maybe in my bed? LOL

“He is not Jesus.”
Khodorkovsky does not claim to be without past fault. He just says he “has an idea” that without the rule of law Russia will never progress. I think President Medvedev agrees with him, but probably does not have the necessary support to buck Putin. We’ll find out Monday when the latest Khodorkovsky verdict is handed down. He’s now accused of doing business to make money, and the consensus is he will get another 14 years in the gulag.

People who admire Putin are like those who admired Mussolini for “making the trains run on time”. Unfortunately Putin is a killer who got his position by murdering his fellow Russians.
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1069686/posts
Putin has insinuated that Khodorkovsky is also a killer, but has never brought a case to court. Do you really think he has any evidence? Can I sell you that bridge in Brooklyn?

I recently worked for a Russian man who is a great guy, but who had the same cynical attitude you have: everyone in Russia is playing a game, and no one is on the level. Unfortunately that pervasive attitude makes any political progress for Russia very unlikely.

>>>>>Khodorkovsky does not claim to be without past fault.>>>>

Yep, exactly. These ‘faults’ are embezzlement, massive tax evasion, extortion and ordering a hit of his adversaries there is no problem he is in jail. That is a rule of law in work that Khodorkovski is lusting on words:)

>>>>>>Putin has insinuated that Khodorkovsky is also a killer, but has never brought a case to court. Do you really think he has any evidence? Can I sell you that bridge in Brooklyn?>>>>>>>>>>

Well, Khodorkovski was never brought to court for murder but his security chief is sentenced for organised hit of a city mayor refused to be bribed by Khodorvovski. That is not enough to put him on trail sure but no sane person may belive a security chief paid by his boss who is interested in killing just did it for fun.

As an appartment bombings it is a conspiracy of the worst kind just like 9/11 as an inside job.

The sourse of conspiracy is a crooked cop Litvinenko (for some reason called a ‘former Russian spy’ by media)who was a hired gun for another Khodorkovski-style gangster Berezovski (another Soros’s Russian pal). Berezovski is famous for supporting Chechen terrorists while Livinenko was in charge for countering ethnic (muslim) gangs in Moscow. In reality he was covering that gangs and used their guns to assist Berezovski’s ‘business’.

I like the way you love these guys who has so much blood on their hands and looted their nation. Both Capone and Madoff are just a juvenile bullies in comparison.

Anyone who things the disinterested rule of law applies in Russia is either willfully blind or KGB.
