Four residents of Buinaksk have been arrested in connection with a terrorist attack.

The court remanded four Buinaksk residents suspected of plotting a terrorist attack on a police station.

As reported by "Caucasian Knot," on July 6, the Investigative Committee reported the arrest of a minor resident of Dagestan suspected of plotting a terrorist attack (Article 205 of the Russian Criminal Code) in Buinaksk. According to investigators, he planned the attack in March 2025, after which he "picked up a homemade explosive device at a predetermined location," but was subsequently detained. According to a law enforcement source, a teenager was planning an explosion near the Ministry of Internal Affairs building in Buinaksk.

Four Buinaksk residents suspected of plotting a terrorist attack against Ministry of Internal Affairs employees have been taken into custody, the Sovietsky District Court of Makhachkala announced today on its VKontakte page, choosing a preventive measure for the detainees.

"According to the materials submitted to the court, a group of individuals conspired to blow up a police station in the Buinaksk District. To carry out their criminal plan, one of the suspects acquired and stored components for making an explosive device," the publication states.

The arrested individuals are suspected of attempting to murder security officials and illegally manufacturing explosive devices (Part 1 of Article 30 of Article 317 of the Russian Criminal Code and Part 2 of Article 223.1 of the Russian Criminal Code). "The court, having reviewed the materials presented, ordered the suspects to be remanded in custody for a period of 1 month and 28 days, or until November 25, 2025," the district court said in a statement.

No other details were provided in the publication. Article 317 of the Russian Criminal Code carries a sentence of 12 years to life imprisonment.

As a reminder, on May 19, nine people, including eight teenagers, suspected of plotting attacks on police officers, were taken into custody in Stavropol Krai. Some of the detainees told security forces that they swore an oath to a terrorist organization without understanding the meaning of what they said.
