The Moscow District Military Court has pronounced the verdict of guilty in the case against Aslan Baisultanov, a native of Chechnya, and two members of his grouping, charged of plotting an explosion in Moscow. They were sentenced to 3-14 years of imprisonment.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that on October 11, 2015, in Moscow, ten people were detained on suspicion of involvement in the preparation of a terror act. Of them, three were taken into custody.
