Khuseyn Gakayev Biography

Khuseyn Gakayev is one of the most popular and richest Militant Leader who was born on July 8, 1970 in Elistanzhi, Russia.

Gakayev was one of six brothers, two of which, the older Jamalay and Said- Usman, were killed in fighting during the First Chechen War. His two other brothers died in combat in the Second Chechen War: Hasan in 2001 and Rizvan in 2003, both in the area of Vedeno. Khuseyn’s sole surviving brother, Muslim Gakayev (also known as “Amir Muslim” or “Dunga”) served as commander of the Shali sector of the Eastern Front, and in 2009 commanded a unit of suicide bombers, until his death alongside Khuseyn. In the course of the second war, his sister was abducted and remains missing since 2006, along with thousands of other Chechens who “disappeared” since 1999.

On 20 August 2003, Gakayev killed Shaiman Madagov, Imam of the Vedeno district, for “cooperating with the Russian state.” Gakayev was also reportedly a part of the 2004 Nazran raid commanded by Basayev, an assault which killed over sixty people and resulted in the capture of virtually the entire weapons cache of Ingushetia’s police force. The operation is considered a milestone in Gakayev’s career and helped propel him from the ranks of everyday militants into the upper tier of rebel leadership. It was at this point that Russian sources began to associate him with many similar operations in the region.

Following Umarov’s retraction of his resignation, Gakayev, Vadalov and Tarkhan Gaziev, as well as the Arab commander Muhannad, renounced their oath of loyalty to Umarov, criticising his authoritarian leadership and his unilateral decision to abandon the cause of Chechen independence in favour of a Caucasian pan-Islamism (Umarov later also said they criticised him for claiming responsibility for the 2010 Moscow Metro bombings). They then removed themselves and their forces from Umarov’s command. In a video, they also announced Gekayev has been elected the Emir of Chechnya. Two months later, the mutiny leaders also jointly appealed for the support of all Chechens, including those abroad, who support their vision of a free Chechnya under Islamic Sharia law. At the same time, however, Gakayev stressed that the Chechen fighters are not abandoning the idea of the joint North Caucasus emirate, in the name of which they would continue to fight, and assured the “brothers”, (fellow Muslims), in Dagestan, Ingushetia, North Ossetia, and Kabardino-Balkaria that they will remain ready to render them assistance.
