Boris Nemtsov murder: Chechen chief Kadyrov confirms link to prime suspect | World news | The Guardian
An associate of Chechnya’s Kremlin-backed leader Ramzan Kadyrov was involved in the murder of Boris Nemtsov, a Russian court has heard, in a twist to the investigation that raises as many questions as it answers.
Zaur Dadayev, a Chechen, was one of five men to appear in a Moscow courtroom on Sunday, all from Russia’s north Caucasus region.
“Dadayev’s involvement in committing this crime is confirmed by, apart from his own confession, the totality of evidence gathered as part of this criminal case,” said Judge Natalia Mushnikova.
Dadayev raised his index finger in the courtroom, a common Islamist sign, and said “I love the prophet Mohammed”, according to reporters present.
“I knew Zaur as a genuine Russian patriot,” the Chechen leader wrote on his Instagram page on Sunday evening, confirming that Dadayev had served in one of his battalions. “He was the deputy commander of the battalion, and one of the most fearless and courageous soldiers of the regiment.”
