“The assault was illogical and criminal” |

Relatives of the hostages still do not agree with the official point of view on the operation in the theatrical center. Dmitry Milovidov, one of the leaders of the — Five years ago, the authorities claimed that they did everything possible to rescue the Let us examine the facts. In the materials from the investigation there is testimony from experts at the FSB Science and Technology Directorate, and they claim that some of the explosives were not in working order. Many did not have initiators installed, or had no batteries. The investigators found that there were only three batteries suitable to cause detonation. This is all noted in the crime scene survey report. — So, do you think that terrorists were not going to blow up anything? It is not what we believe, but what the facts say. That the explosives were not ready to blow up the building speaks for itself. In addition, the same experts refute myths about the inevitability of the building’s destruction from a chain reaction of explosives, and also determined the true TNT equivalents of the explosive devices. Those who have been following this may have noted that they originally claimed a figure of 2 tons of TNT, then 500 kg, and then 120 kg. The experts conclude that the total TNT equivalent of explosive devices in the auditorium was 76.6 kg. — That would not have been enough to collapse the roof? Naturally. The experts sifted through every theoretical option, including piling every bomb and all ammunition in one heap, and they concluded that, even if an explosion could occur, the columns wound not have collapsed, the balcony would not have collapsed, and neither would the walls or the roof. But we must be objective. The hostages located inside the building would, indeed, have received many injuries, because all the charges were filled with a large number of metal objects. I repeat, however, that explosive devices were in a state to be detonated, and the terrorists were not preparing to blow up anything. They wanted negotiations. — But security officials argue that the assault was launched because the terrorists had begun shooting the hostages. That is not true. Several hostages had been shot in the auditorium, but long before the assault, not right before it. On the night of the 23rd-24th, one of the hostages lost his nerve. He had a bottle in his hand rushed a terrorist. He was shot at, but not hit, though Tamara Starkova and Pavel Zakharov were. A bullet to the head mortally wounded Zakharov. None of the rest of the hostages got shot. At 11 pm on October 25th, crane operator Gennady Vlakh managed, by still undetermined means, to enter the theater building. He had worked in Spitak, during the recovery efforts from the Armenian earthquake, and had done a lot of wandering around the country. He was killed and his body was cremated together with those of the terrorists, and it was only after six months that his family learned that he was listed as a terrorist. In addition to Gennady Vlakh, terrorist bullets killed Olga Romanova, who on the night of the 23rd-24th was also able to enter the auditorium. According to video, she walked straight across the square. How she managed to get through three concentric police cordons, and who sent her, is still an enigma. Konstantin Vasilyev, a border patrol lieutenant colonel, was also shot to death. At 5 am (on the 24th), wearing full officer uniform, he went to the theater to exchange himself for hostages. Near the theater entrance, a terrorist named Yassir shot him. These people were not even hostages. They were individuals who entered or were sent through the police cordon in order to provoke the terrorists. — But can you rule out that these people could have willingly gone there? Perhaps they wanted to save someone? I also wanted to go there voluntarily. I had a child there, whom no one saved. Mr. Nechayev wanted to go there on his own. He was laid out face down in the mud. A lot of people wanted to, and all were stopped. Right after Vlakh, according to video footage, another man went up to the building, but he came back from the door with his hands over his head. So, we figured out that five people were shot, and three of them were not hostages. These facts were known long before the assault. At 6 am, however, Mr. Ignatchenko, a representative of the anti-terrorism operational headquarters, said that, supposedly, two hostages tried to escape from the hall and had been shot, and so the assault was then initiated. This was not true. They simply needed to justify this assault, and that is what they did. — Do you think that the assault never should have taken place? It was illogical and criminal. They did not contract enough rescuers, and the medics were unprepared, so it was then impossible to carry it out. There is an example of a competent hostage rescue operation: in 1996, 500 hostages were seized at the Japanese embassy in Peru. Over the course of a month, the government managed to negotiate to reduce the number of hostages, which would facilitate the work of security forces and rescue workers in case an assault was necessary. An operation was actually performed, and brilliantly, and by the time of the assault there were only about 50 people in the embassy. Only one hostage died — of a heart attack. — Why do you think the decision was made to conduct an assault? Obviously they wanted to quickly resolve the situation, because that many troops could not stay that long on alert. Besides, they had officially announced that it all was threatening Russia’s credibility in the international arena. Paramount was the destruction of the terrorists, rather than saving lives, so they used the most dangerous of chemical substances, one for which there is no antidote. — Do you think that no antidote ever existed? The ‘Zashchita’ Russian Center for Disaster Medicine performed an investigation at the request of the Prosecutor General’s Office. In their summary, dated January 29th, 2003, they stated: “Complicating conditions were the absence of advance information about the possible application of special chemical substances, and the lack of a specific antidote for the special substance used, as well as lethal doses that led to instantaneous death.” The doctors had no information! This is in their testimony, and I quote: “In the absence of information about the substance used, special resuscitation procedures were not applied.” Only later did we find out what sort of special chemical substance was applied. A response was received from the FSB, that during the assault a gas based on derivatives of fentanyl was used. In an interview, Health Minister Shevchenko pointed out that these substances are supposedly used in medicine for anesthesia. That is not true. These substances back then were not in the Russian register of medicines, nor in references anywhere! Only in 2005 did the Russian register of medicines add one of the derivatives of fentanyl — remifentanyl. It was for a long time an experimental drug, accepted with a mention that little study had been made of the drug, and with a large number of contraindications. As a rule it is used for the euthanasia of very large animals — elephants, hippos, etc. — Do you think that the security services, and not the doctors and rescue workers, were to blame for the deaths of so many hostages? 114 people, according to the findings of the investigation, died on the spot. What kind of doctors are we talking about? They handed them corpses and expected them to perform miracles. Maybe the leaders of the security agencies did not realize that two minutes without taking a breath was equivalent to a bullet in the head? Resuscitation should have begun within two minutes after the use of the special chemical substance. Was it even possible (to use this) in real world conditions? Of course not. The practice of using such substances shows that, yes, you can knock out a small group of people, but the number of rescuers needs to be twice the number immobilized. Otherwise — death. — Why is the For several years it has been artificially extended two or three months at a time. The reasons for the extension are formal, and repeated from one resolution to the next. Now the case has been suspended while they search for accomplices named Zakayev and Dudayev, not to be confused with their famous namesakes. For five years we have been striving for one thing: the truth, and punishment of the perpetrators. We demand that the leaders of operational headquarters, and the leaders of security services, who made the decision to use a dangerous special chemical substance, be judged in a court of law.
