Both suspects are from the Caucasus region of southern Russia.
Among
those detained were "Zaur Dadayev, who is the deputy commander
of a unit of 'Sever' battalion of the Chechen Republic Ministry of
Internal Affairs and another man who was with him in the car at the

Russian Investigative Committee, the Interior Ministry and the FSB to
set up a joint investigative team to investigate the murder.
