“The Main Investigative Directorate of the Investigative Committee of Russia conducted an investigation following an appeal from a group of deputies of the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation and other persons about the financing of terrorist activities by senior officials of the United States and NATO countries.

According to investigators, money to carry out terrorist attacks in Russia and abroad came through commercial organizations, including the Ukrainian oil and gas company Burisma Holdings. The purpose of this was to eliminate prominent political and public figures, as well as to cause economic damage.

Now department employees, together with other intelligence services and financial intelligence, are checking the sources of income and further movement of money in the amount of several million dollars. In addition, they are studying the involvement of representatives of authorities, public and commercial organizations in Western countries. The Investigative Committee is also looking into connections between the perpetrators of terrorist attacks and foreign curators, organizers and sponsors.
On Monday, the Investigative Committee reported receiving significant information about the training of the militants who carried out the terrorist attack in Crocus , which may indicate their connection with the Ukrainian special services. Department employees carry out investigative actions and operational search activities to identify and detain other participants in the crime - perpetrators, accomplices and organizers.
