Top Muslim cleric, deputy shot dead in Tatarstan, Russia

Share:

Investigators say a top Muslim cleric in Russia’s Tatarstan province has been shot dead, and another wounded by a car bomb.

Russia’s Investigative Committee said that Valiulla Yakupov, the deputy to the Muslim province’s chief mufti, was gunned down Thursday on the way out of his house in Tatarstan’s regional capital, Kazan.

Tatarstan investigator Eduard Abdullin told The Associated Press that chief mufti Ildus Fayzov was wounded in the leg after an explosive device ripped through his vehicle in central Kazan.

Both clerics were known as critics of radical Islamist groups that advocate a strict version of Islam known as Salafism.

Tatarstan is a Volga River province with a population of almost 4 million, more than half of which are Sunni Muslims.

      Not all Salafis are bad just like not all Shia are good…. This probably is some CIA Mossad trying to start problems in Russia, Russia has a large Muslim population 20% And with it’s recent stance towards the USA.. There is definitely some problems being orchestrated for the Russian government.

    Tough to be a critic these days – especially of a ‘Boku Haram’ of the North? But again, that’s speculation. At least until someone brags about it. More likely something about money or sex … or both. 🙂
