Purges in Ingushetia' Mosques Publication time: 19 September 2006, 13:41 Kavkav Center sources said puppet police carried out raids on several mosques in the Russian-occupied Caucasian Muslim state of Ingushetia September 15 after Friday prayers. At least in two mosques including the town of Malgobek, mass arrests of Muslims were reported. Relatives and friends said 50 Muslims were arrested and their fingerprints taken.
The Muslims were arrested on the ground they left mosques before the end of daytime prayers. Puppet police and Russian secret services consider such Muslim potentially dangerous. Local Sufi mullas think that Muslims who don't say full prayers are "Wahhabists" and report them to Russian secret services which in their turn spy on such "unreliable persons".
