The duty officer said that the census was planned long ago and has no connection with the possible threat from the south. The attack killed dozens of innocent persons. Ziyautdinov was in possession of a forged Kyrgyz passport when detained. He will be extradited to Russia. Further investigations brought the officer to an apartment in Ekibastuz where video-tapes and books in Arabic, propagandizing radical Islam were found.
