私これまでインターファクスと何回も書きましたけど、死亡の状況を書いてあるところずばりにはにインターファクスは出てきていませんでしたね。混乱させて申し訳ありません。

モスクワタイムズによるとモスクワ寄りのチェチェン内相代理Alkhanovが手榴弾だろうとコメルサント紙に語ったようですが、チェチェンにいる連邦軍の報道官Shabalkinは手榴弾とロシアメディアに語るのにNYタイムズには「砲弾ショックを起こして云々」と言って、未だ大本営も混乱しているようです(下に記事転載、また、Kommersant.comの記事へのリンクと見出しを示しておきます)。独立運動ゲリラは戦闘継続を宣言していますし「マスハドフは『日曜』に大規模な作戦があり暗殺された」とウェブで発表しているようです。

Aslan Maskhadov Killed
// Nikolai Patrushev claims responsibility

Special Operation
Aslan Maskhadov, the president of Ichkeria, was killed yesterday in Chechnya. It was learned that he was in hiding in Tolstoy-Yurt (Grozny Rural District), one of the most peaceful villages in the republic. The Regional Antiterrorist Headquarters explained the death of the Ichkerian leader, who had recently come out with peace initiatives, as the result of an attempt by his followers to seize the district center. After Maskhadov's death, the next leader of the Chechen fighters will probably be Shamil Basaev or Doku Umarov, who are well known for their implacability towards Russia.

Aslan Maskhadov's Final Hours
By Carl Schreck
Staff Writer

Aslan Maskhadov apparently spent his last days typing on two laptop computers and eating fresh bread, yogurt and chocolate in an underground concrete bunker packed with guns and explosives, officials said Wednesday.

But a shroud of mystery hung over how and when the Chechen rebel leader died. Various accounts suggested that he was either killed by a grenade blast, shot by FSB commandos, accidentally shot by a bodyguard, or perhaps even killed by Chechen security forces two days before authorities declared him dead Tuesday.

Federal Security Service commandos rolled into Tolstoy-Yurt in armored vehicles early Tuesday, blocking off several streets and ordering residents -- even local policemen -- back into their homes, town officials told Kommersant.

After blocking off the town's center, the commandos closed in on a small, single-story house on Ulitsa Suvorova, owned by a distant relative of Maskhadov, suspected terrorist Saiderbek Yusupov, the newspaper said.

"The commandos broke down the door and went inside," an unidentified participant in the operation was quoted as saying. "The owner of the house offered no resistance, and he was taken outside.

"When asked where Maskhadov and his men were, he said they were in a bunker. [Maskhadov and his men] could not shoot their way out of the bunker -- it would have been easy for [the commandos] to throw grenades at them through the hole. At first [the commandos] tried to make a deal with Maskhadov to turn himself in. But he refused to talk to our guys."

The source said the commandos negotiated with three aides who were in the bunker with Maskhadov for about an hour.

After Maskhadov refused to surrender, the commandos threw grenades into the bunker, possibly killing him, Chechnya's interior minister, Ruslan Alkhanov, told Kommersant.

Adding credence to that version, Interfax reported Wednesday that four rebels in addition to Maskhadov had died in the operation.

Gazeta offered a slightly different version of events, saying the commandos were met with automatic gunfire while trying to enter the bunker. Instead of risking their lives, they decided to blow up a bunker wall, causing an explosion that may have killed Maskhadov. It was unclear how they might have blown up an underground bunker wall.

Ilya Shabalkin, spokesman for the federal forces in Chechnya, did not add any clarity to how Maskhadov was killed. He told Russian media that Maskhadov died from wounds suffered in the grenade blast. However, he told The New York Times that Maskhadov was "shell-shocked but tried to shoot back."

FSB video footage of Maskhadov's body showed little evidence of shrapnel wounds, while there appeared to be a bullet hole under his left eye.

Shabalkin could not be reached by telephone for clarification.

He said in a statement Wednesday that Maskhadov's three aides surrendered without resistance after the explosion.

It was unclear why grenades rather than tear gas or sleeping gas might have been used if the commandos wanted to take Maskhadov alive -- as Moscow-backed Deputy Chechen Prime Minister Ramzan Kadyrov announced Tuesday.

A former FSB anti-terrorism commando, Sergei Goncharov, said by telephone that the use of such gases was standard procedure in the storming of enclosed spaces. Goncharov, now a deputy in the Moscow City Duma, declined to speculate, however, as to why FSB commandos might have adopted a different strategy, citing the conflicting reports and lack of a definitive version of events.

Spokesmen from the FSB and Chechnya's Interior Ministry refused to comment, referring all questions to Shabalkin.

Shortly after Maskhadov's death, Kadyrov offered a curiously divergent account of what had happened, saying Maskhadov was killed when a bodyguard next to him "carelessly handled his gun."

In a twist, a rebel-linked web site, Ingushetiya.ru, claimed Wednesday to have confirmed with a source close to Kadyrov that Maskhadov had actually been killed Sunday by officers of the 5,000-member Chechen security force that Kadyrov heads. According to the web site, Kadyrov paid a hefty sum of money for information about Maskhadov's whereabouts, and Maskhadov died in a gun battle that broke out during an attempt to take him into custody.

Kadyrov, however, did not want to bear the "eternal shame" of having killed Maskhadov before the Chechen people and asked federal forces to take credit for his death, the web site said.

It was unclear how long Maskhadov had been hiding in the bunker. He apparently had been typing on two laptop computers, which contained his personal files and were found in the bunker, Shabalkin said in the statement. Investigators were examining the files Wednesday.

Shabalkin said a search of the bunker also turned up videotapes, firearms, hand grenades, radios and a belt rigged with explosives -- a weapon commonly used by suicide bombers.

Vendors at the Tolstoy-Yurt outdoor market told police that the owner of the house, Yusupov, had been buying five loaves of bread, yogurt and 2 kilograms of chocolate every day, Interfax reported.

"The vendors were puzzled why his family would need so much food," a police official told Interfax.
