Events Summary

  • We called the local number he had left, but they told us he was not in.
  • We then called his home in Kislovodsk and learned that he was there and was looking for us.
  • After this call, upon leaving the call center, we were detained by police officers and taken to the station, where they recorded our names and then released us.

The Next Day

  • Dekkushev arrived (on this day or the next, the first house was blown up in Moscow).
  • From the conversation between him and Timur Batchaev, I understood that the cargo we had sent on the "Mercedes" was blown up in Moscow and that there were also explosives in our KAMAZ that we were supposed to blow up.
  • I realized that I was already in deep trouble and there was no way back, as I feared responsibility for participating in these crimes.
  • I was presented with the fact that they were planning to blow up the dam of the Tsimlyanskaya HPP.
  • We drove out to it and realized that it was practically impossible to blow it up due to its size and the security.
  • I want to note that Dekkushev insisted on the dam option, while Batchaev objected to him.
  • Disagreements began between us; Batchaev and I were in favor of leaving.
  • Meanwhile, we bought a GAZ-53 truck with a van body from a man of Armenian nationality (as I understood).
  • In one of the bays on the territory of the motor transport enterprise where our KAMAZ was parked, we transferred the bags of explosives into it at night, also covering them with potatoes.
  • We sold some of the potatoes.
  • Dekkushev had all the money; he handled all the payments.

After the Disputes

  • When Dekkushev insisted on the dam option, Batchaev said something like the following to him: "Here is the truck for you, do whatever you want with it."
  • After which he installed an explosive device with a timer in it (I did not see it), and he and I left in the KAMAZ for Karachaevsk, where we parked it in the yard of Dekkushev's brother (Timur knew him).
  • Dekkushev, however, remained in Volgodonsk and, as I learned later, asked the Armenian who sold us the GAZ-53 to drive it to his house, which he did.
  • I learned about the explosion that occurred from media reports.
