Putin condemns 'Chechen' bombing

Moscow police said a suicide bomber
probably triggered the blast

Russian President Vladimir Putin has blamed Chechen separatists for a bomb attack on the Moscow underground railway that killed at least 39 people.

Mr Putin said he did not need any indirect confirmation - he was certain that rebel leader Aslan Maskhadov and his forces were behind the explosion.

The morning rush-hour blast on a packed train injured more than 100 people.

Moscow has been hit by a series of bombings in recent years - almost all of them blamed on Chechen rebels.
