MOSCOW (Sputnik) – Leader of Russia’s Chechen Republic Ramzan Kadyrov asked Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan to extradite three militants who had earlier operated in the southern Russian region, the website of the Chechen leader said on Saturday.

"I address you with a strong request to extradite the bandits. That would be very important for bringing terrorists to trial and bringing [them] to accountability prescribed by law," Kadyrov said.

He added that it was also important for Turkey because it was impossible to think about stability when terrorists known worldwide were in the country.

Earlier on Saturday, Kadyrov said that militants Mahran Saidov, Aslambek Vadalov and Tarhan Gaziyev had been detained and Turkey. He added that they were accused of attacking and murdering local police officers.
