Text of statement by Commander (Amir) of Islamic Brigade of Shaheeds 'Riyadus Salihiin', Abdallah Shamil Abu-Idris

«I seek the refuge in God from evil Satan! In the name of God, Most Merciful, Most Beneficent!»

Praise Allah, the Lord of the Worlds, Who created us Muslims and Who blessed us with Jihad on His Straight Way!

Peace and blessing be to Prophet Muhammad, to his family, to his disciples and to all of those who follow the Straight Way until the Day of Judgment, and then:

In early January this year Islamic Brigade of Shaheeds (Martyrs) 'Riyadus Salihiin' made an official statement, where it announced that if President of Russia Putin makes an official statement that he is ready to stick to the so-called norms of the international law in occupied Ichkeria, then Brigade of Shaheeds 'Riyadus Salihiin' will stop any acts of sabotage against unarmed civilians on Russian territories.

We are explaining that in this statement we did not mean stopping the war operations, which Russia is supposed to do, and which are continuing to this day. What we meant was that the Russian military clique must stop tortures, murders, mutilations, humiliations and terror, which it inflicts on the peaceful civilians of Chechen Republic of Ichkeria. We meant the extrajudicial executions and kidnappings, when people keep disappearing after punitive raids by the Russian terrorist formations. 87 people have disappeared in Chechnya and Ingushetia only during the first two months of this year alone. We meant that Russia's gangs, which claim to be an army, must comply with the norms of the international law on the occupied territories.

The response to our statement was the terrorist act perpetrated against Ex-President of Chechen Republic of Ichkeria Zelimkhan Yandarbi in Qatar, which was a demonstrative example of an extrajudicial execution, which Putin is personally responsible for. Let me remind that during the meeting with President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev Putin openly stated live on the air that «...Russia does not conduct negotiations with terrorists, but it eliminates them». It was a specific order to carry out the preplanned extrajudicial execution.

I am officially stating once again that Zelimkhan Yandarbi had nothing to do with the events in Dagestan, or especially with the Nord-Ost events of the hostage-taking in the Moscow theater. Nor did he have anything to do with funding the units of the Chechen Resistance.

Chechens say, «He that is afraid to hit a horse, fights with the saddle». It seems to us that Putin got Qatar and and 'outhouse' confused. (meaning Putin's saying that he would be «icing Chechens in an outhouse»). We will see whether it is true or not. We have been carefully tracking the events around the two Russian terrorists, who are now being tried in Qatar.

What Russia can do, we can do also. I swear to God, we have the capabilities to eliminate Russians in virtually any country, but we have not been transferring our combat operations outside of Russia, and today these particular events in Qatar will be determining our further actions from this time on.

In the Holy Quran Allah says: «And wage war with them the way they are waging a war against ye, but do not overstep, for Allah liketh not the ones who overstep». Therefore we have the right to a legitimate adequate response, i.e. virtually anything except the use of bacteriological and nuclear weapons.

Brigade of Shaheeds Riyadus Salihiin is making an official statement that on the territory of Russia mosques, synagogues, pagodas and all churches except for the Russian Orthodox Church, all monasteries, kindergartens, orphanages and other children’s institutions, as well as mental facilities are all safe. Russian Orthodox churches, who have the defeated Islamic crescent under their crosses, are legitimate targets for our attacks, since the Church’s leadership, which consists mainly of agents of FSB (Russian Federal Security Service, former KGB) and GRU (Russian Main Intelligence Directorate), is taking active part in the genocide of the Chechen people.

Whenever possible, we will be bombing, blowing things up, poisoning, setting things on fire, carrying out explosions of natural gas and making fires on the territories of Russia. Also this year people over the age of 10 and older will start disappearing on the Russian territories, the same way people are disappearing on the occupied war-torn Chechen land.

I hereby officially declare that chemical weapons and poisons of various modifications are being used against us. Therefore we reserve the right to use chemical and toxic substances and the same poisons against Russia.

We are holding Russian President Putin responsible for the further events that will happen on the territory of Russia, because he is refusing to stick to the norms of the international law on the occupied territories of Ichkeria. Once again we are confirming our willingness to stick to the norms of the international law, if Putin and his camarilla complies with them as well.

Allah has sent us Jihad as His Mercy and we are not in a hurry, we are taking our time. Like Russians say, 'By hook or by crook', we will finish Russia off, Insha Allah (God Willing)!

Our motto is 'Victory or Paradise!' and we have vowed to win the victory or die.

This entire world will rather be set on fire before we ever give up our Freedom and our Independence.

Allah Akbar! God is Great!

Commander (Amir) of Islamic Brigade of Shaheeds 'Riyadus Salihiin',Abdallah Shamil Abu-Idris
