This document, titled 'The Lubyanka Vector' by Mark Ulensch, provides a detailed investigative report on the 1999 apartment bombings and subsequent legal proceedings. It highlights significant events such as the 1999 Ryazan incident, critiquing the official 'training exercise' claim through analysis of video footage, and examines allegations of FSB involvement through the 'Perovo lead' involving gang leader Maxim Lazovsky. The report documents the work of the Kovalev Commission and the involvement of figures like Mikhail Trepashkin and Alexander Litvinenko in surfacing evidence, including Gochiyayev's 'repentance letters.' A notable section discusses early 'predictions' of the bombings in the newspaper Moskovsky Komsomolets and the suspicious deaths of multiple witnesses and investigators. It also explores technical details of the explosives and provides a timeline of the arrests and trials of suspects like Dekkushev and Krymshamkhalov through late 2003.
