New sanctions against SOBR (специал’нии отряд быстрого реагирования)"Terek" police anti terrorism unit. Essentially a giant SWAT team slash death squad in based in Chechnya. The favorite tool of Ramzan Kadyrov. Trivia: November 9 is SOBR day in Russia. reuters.com/article/us-usa…
Ramzan's Terek boys won first place out at Jordan in 2015 ) … and have the obligatory cool guy recruitment videos.
SOBR Terek has a massive training facility in Gudermes. Here is Ramzan Kadyrov with none other that Erik Prince's old UAE SSD buddy Tahnoon Nayhan watching everybody kung fu fighting. Tahnoon is a martial arts fan. Terek are now officially bad guys.
Odd to add an entire anti terrorism police unit to the treasury sanctions under the Magnitsky Act along with head Abuzayed Vismuradov. The USG calls them "Terek Special Rapid Response Team a.k.a. Special Division of First Responders, Chechnya (SOBR)" treasury.gov/resource-cente…
Kadyrov then threatened the U.S via Telegram.: “I officially make it clear for the authors of this scribble – all of you are on OUR lists!” and insisted that America is afraid of “small Chechnya, located very far from large America.” rt.com/news/459521-us…
Kadyrov loves social media. He probably should get an award for his Simple Jack impression. He has also lent his SOBR Terek men and other killers to Putin to do his dirty work. telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews…
In addition to arresting, abusing, torturing and killing people including the recent pogrom against homosexuals. Kadyrov is also linked to the murder of journalist Anna Politkovskaya and Boris Nemtsov. theguardian.com/world/2017/jul…
