This document contains a written confession dated July 2002 from Yusuf Krymshamkhalov and Timur Batchaev, who admit to low-level involvement in the 1999 Russian apartment bombings but deny Chechen involvement. They allege that the Federal Security Service (FSB) was the customer of the attacks, specifically naming FSB Director Nikolai Patrushev and manager German Ugryumov, the latter of whom they claim was liquidated by the FSB. The suspects assert they were used 'blindly,' believing they were storing explosives for military or administrative targets rather than residential buildings. Historian Yuri Felshtinsky discusses these claims in an interview, referencing his work with Alexander Litvinenko and suggesting that Max Lazovsky, another alleged manager, may have faked his death. The document highlights a narrative of state-sponsored terrorism intended to trigger the second Chechen war and the subsequent suppression of investigators.
