the Brigands in the Caucasus called the outcasts, loners, forced to gone to the mountains from his native village because of some crime or for the fulfillment of blood vengeance. Some of them became leaders of the same gangs of thugs. Someone was awarded the people’s love as a kind of mountain “Robin hoods”. Some brought their activities with political overtones. Most were simply engaged in robbery.

Brigands and revolution

Abreast is widespread in the North Caucasus, in Azerbaijan and some areas of Georgia in the early twentieth century. However, in 1913, just before the First world war, abreast was dealt a terrible blow. The worst of the Chechen Abrek Zelimkhan Hasmasului ran into an ambush of their countrymen (some of whom were his blood enemies), and was killed. In Soviet times Chechnya has created a cult Guchmazova as revolutionary. The leaders of the outlaws Dagestan and Ingushetia – Buba of the village of Caviar and Salambek Karawajew – surrendered to the authorities. The verdict of the court, they hung up.

Revolution revived abreast. Now anyone who has embarked on the path of armed struggle with the government, was called Abrek. First brigands fought against the white guard troops occupied the North Caucasus. Particularly famous Chechen Aslanbek Sheripov, the people’s Commissar of the Terek Soviet Republic and the commander of the Chechen red Army. From February 1919, the Sheripov gang began to terrorize the white guard and Cossack garrisons. For a long time it remained elusive, until in September 1919, the Sheripov was killed during another RAID.

Gajadin gocinski

Avar Imam Gajadin from the village of Gozo was the head of the anti-Soviet forces in Dagestan. In may 1917, the Congress of mountain peoples in Vladikavkaz, unanimously elected him as the mufti of the North Caucasus.

After the October revolution in Russia, the Imam Hazhmudin was to reduce everything to the independence of the Republic of the Mountaineers of the North Caucasus. But soon he had to keep fighting, first against the Bolsheviks, then against the whites, and then again against the Bolsheviks.

After the establishment of Soviet power in Dagestan Gajadin gocinski with a group of followers hiding in the mountains. The Bolsheviks mobilized against him “public opinion”, and he called in 1923 a Congress of mountaineers of Dagestan with participation of the Islamic clergy. It Gajadin was declared an “enemy of all Muslims that deserve the most severe punishment”. This shows the danger it represented to Soviet power. On Gotsinsky were raids, and he left the territory of Chechnya. The Bolsheviks appointed a large bounty on his head, or at least for providing him asylum. Traitors were found. Gajadin agreed to surrender when the security officers took hostage 16 people in surrounding villages.

When strongly thin Hamadin came out of his hiding place (5 September 1925), he promised the traitor that they will meet at the last judgment. After that he surrendered himself into the hands of the KGB. 28 Sep 1925 Gajadin was shot in Rostov-on-don, without a trial, the verdict of the special Troika of the OGPU in the North Caucasus region.

Hassan Israilov and Mairbek Sheripov

With the names of these two people brought together armed uprising of Chechens during the advent of the North Caucasus Germans in 1942. Israilov from the tape Terlau (for which he took the pseudonym Thurlow) was in his youth a staunch supporter of the Soviet regime. However, very soon experienced that membership in the CPSU(b) and the proximity to power increases the risk to fall under the repression. Before the great Patriotic war he was twice convicted and imprisoned for “counterrevolutionary activities”, but both times parole. After the second release Israilov was not to restore the party and went into hiding. Apparently in the winter of 1941/42, he was able to establish contact with Nazi emissaries from the battalion of special forces of the Abwehr “Bergman”(“Highlander”).

mayrbek Sheripov was the brother of the Abrek, the red army Aslanbek Sheripov. He also took an active part in the construction of Soviet Chechnya, and as Israilov, was arrested. Before the war it was returned to administrative work, but Sheripov decided to take revenge on the authorities. In the autumn of 1941 he went to the brigands.

In August 1942, with the German offensive in the North Caucasus, in Chechnya began an open rebellion. The rebels began to act offensive to capture the regional centers, to release prisoners, to divide between Chechens collective farm livestock. Many of the Soviet workers and security officers passed on their way. Units Israilov and Sheripov was able to interact. 7 November 1942 Sheripov was killed.

the Germans to Chechnya is not reached. In the spring of 1943 began active suppression of the Chechen rebellion, and the outlaws had to retreat to the mountains. In February 1944 began the deportation of the Chechen people.

Brigands as he could, sought to hinder her. Chechens who escaped the deportation, tried to find refuge in their squad. Israilov was hoping for his supporters in the organs of the NKVD of the Republic and people’s Commissar of internal Affairs of the Chechen-Ingushetia Sultan Albogachiev was his secret supporter. He informed Israilov about the actions of law enforcement agencies and tore all of the shares in his capture. But Albogachiev was dismissed. In December 1944, Israilov, was hunted down and killed as “resisted arrest.”
khasukha Magomadov

In the USSR, those who knew about it, called him the last Abrek. He spent in the mountains, hiding from the law and engaged in robbery, for 36 years.

this way of life prompted him not politics, but “domestics”. In 1939 Magomadov had committed a crime of revenge, was captured, escaped from prison in the mountains.

he Joined the Chechen uprising during the war. His eyes held the deportation of the Chechens, attempt settlement in the region by colonists from all over the Union, repatriation of the Chechens. All this time Magomadov disappeared in the mountains.

In his case was listed 194 robbery, during whichof which was committed over thirty murders. If all such shares were on the conscience of Magomadov and his gang, or what was attributed to him (fortunately for the elusive Abrek was easy to blame all the flaws of the police), now hard to say. It is clear that he represented a great threat not so much of security as the prestige of the Soviet power in Chechnya. No wonder that already in 90-e years in “Ichkeria” of Dzhokhar Dudayev, Magomadov was posthumously awarded the order.

When, in 1976, the old Abrek tracked, then its destruction had a operation involving troops. Magomadov had to pay for his life – one policeman was killed. To the body last Abrek dared to go the whole day. They buried him secretly.
