Moscow police are looking for a group of men, allegedly from the Caucasus, who wrote offensive extremist graffiti in the city’s Metro.
On Saturday morning, one of the entrance hall walls at the Metro station Planernaya welcomed Muscovites with two inscriptions – “AllÄÂhu Akbar” and “Death to Russians”.
Earlier on Saturday, several people saw four men spraying graffiti on the wall. They immediately called the police, which, however, failed to detain the suspects.
The police say there were no CCTV cameras on the site, but they are continuing the search.
The news follows last Monday’s terror attacks in Moscow, when two major blasts occurred on the Sokolnicheskaya line. The tragedy claimed the lives of 40 people.

I do not represent the USA officially, but in discussions with many Americans, I can tell you that we support you during these trying times. Islamo-facism has run amok in Russia, and we only hope that you are able to defeat it. America is waging a war on terror, and it looks like Russia will be doing so soon.
