It is also known about four dead police officers. The corpse of one - an employee of OP "Staropromyslovsky" named Ramzan - was discovered in the village of Katayama in the Zavodskoy district of Grozny. Initially, he was wanted as one of the accomplices of attacks, but later it turned out that he himself became their victim.

Three other security forces were killed in a battle with Mujahideen in Grozny.
