30-year-old MMA fighter Ahmed Hasanov was killed in a cafe in the city of Teikovo, Russia. “The body of a man was discovered near a café-barbecue in Teikovo on February 23. He has gunshot wounds to the head, torso and limbs. On this fact, the SU IC of Russia in the Ivanovo region initiated a criminal investigation under Part 1 of Art. 105 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation", the investigation department of the RF IC in the Ivanovo region informs.

According to the representative of the MMA-club in Teikovo, Andrei Kurbatov, Ahmed Hasanov has barely trained in the past year. “At one time he performed at our various karate and wrestling championships, but at a not very high level. I have not seen him for more than a year,” said Kurbatov.
