Russian secret services investigating discovery of documents in Chechnya with a map of strikes at New YorkRussian secret services are investigating the discovery in Chechnya's Argun of a map showing directions of strikes at the World Trade Centre in New York, involving civil aircraft. A spokesman for the Chechen Republic Department of Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB) has told RIA Novosti that these documents were taken from an Argun resident suspected of belonging to a terrorist group. The back side of the map had the inscription "Jihad."
Earlier, on September 17, security service officers found a computer compact disk with descriptions of a Boeing 737 aircraft, a pilot's manual, and an electronic map of Chechnya. The disk was hidden in the Chechen village of Tsotsin-Yurt, in a cache which belonged to a terrorist group leader named Little Abdurakhman.
The Federal Security Service immediately informed the United States about the find. "People who had these documents are members of a Chechen terrorist group led by an Arab mercenary who has contacts with Osama bin Laden," FSB spokesman Alexander Zdanovich has said. "We know that several terrorists and representatives of bin Laden have been to Chechnya and now may be staying at Pankisi on the territory of Georgia."
