A new espionage team which had been jailed last month were planning to kill a Chechen dissident in Turkey, on the orders of Chechen leader, Ramzan Kadyrov, an investigation revealed, Daily Sabah reports.
According to the report, the spies—four Russians, a Ukrainian and an Uzbek national—had plotted to assassinate a Chechen dissident named “Abdulhakim” living in Turkey, who fought for the opposition in Syria against the Bashar Assad regime.
Within the scope of “Operation Kama” (Dagger), suspects determined to be preparing for the assassination of Vahid Edelgirev, a Russian citizen of Chechen descent, in Istanbul in 2015 were caught in April 2016. Edelgirev was a member of the Caucasus Emirate, a Chechen organisation designated as a terrorist group by Russia and the United States.
The Istanbul police also conducted the operation known as “Operation Gümüs” (Silver) against Markharbi Isaev, another Russian citizen of Chechen descent, and those who were provided arms by the Ramazan Kadirov network to assassinate a Chechen in Istanbul.
With “Operation Ayı” (Bear), Turkey caught four Russians, one Ukrainian, and one Uzbek citizen in simultaneous operations in Istanbul and Antalya in October 2021 for activities against dissident Chechen elements and those with links to the Russian intelligence.
