Nearly 50 gang leaders killed in Russia last year, according to FSB chief  Russian security forces in 2011 destroyed nearly fifty gang leaders, including the three Al-Qaeda emissaries, according to the chairman of the National Antiterrorist Committee (NAC), FSB director and Army General Alexander Bortnikov on Wednesday.
«48 gang leaders were liquidated, including three Al-Qaeda emissaries,» he revealed at a meeting of the NAC, adding that another 297 active members of bandit groups were also destroyed.
«660 bandits and their accomplices were detained, including 13 leaders of the religious extremist underground,» the general noted.
The New Year, 2012, was also marked by several major victories by security forces in the fight against terror. Yesterday the elimination of the leader of the Dagestan criminal underground, Ibrahimkhalil Daudov, was made known. Daudov was possibly involved in the terrorist attack in Makhachkala, where on the night of September 22, 2011, one policeman was killed and more than 40 people injured in bombings, according to a report made earlier by the leadership of the Investigative Committee of Dagestan.
In late January, the NAC reported that a bandit killed in Ingushetia was identified as one of the ringleaders of the 'Caucasus Emirate' international terrorist organization, Dzhamaleyl Mutaliev. As was reported, Doku Umarov, the leader of 'Caucasus Emirate', entrusted Mutaliev with the largest attacks of sabotage and terrorism in that region. Among these terrorist attacks was the attack on the Vladikavkaz market in September 2010, in which 19 were killed and at least 240 injured, and the suicide bombing in August of that year on Rostov-Baku highway in Chechnya, in which four policemen were killed.
