The Russian government was indeed quick. Soon after Moscow Domodedovo Airport was bombed on January 29, footage of the incident has been broadcast worldwide on TV. Needless to say, the footage was possible thanks to the video camera set at the site accidentally. On the following day, the profiles of the criminal were described as “three males from Chechen.”

In contrast to the case of the assassination of Anna Politkovskaya which has been left unresolved for more than four years and whose suspect has not yet been pinpointed by the Russian government, we cannot help but sigh at the remarkable performance of investigative sources of the Russian government this time. Even the case of bombing of an apartment in Moscow 12 years ago still shows no signs of being unresolved. One should not, however, be overconfident of the Russian overnment which should be accused of a series of false announcement in the past.
