Two suicide bomb attacks in Chechnya's capital Grozny have resulted in the death of seven police officers and an emergency services worker  late on Tuesday.

The attacks took place during celebrations at the end of the Muslim festival of Ramadan, a police official told the Interfax news agency.

"Today is the most sacred day for all Muslims. On that day a trained and zombified bandit attempted to carry out a terrorist attack. The bandits have shown their real face, which only proves that this evil should be eradicated." Ramzan Kadyrov, the Moscow-backed  provincial leader, has said, as cited by RIA Novosti.

No organizations have claimed responsibility for the attacks, but they are believed to be the work of Chechen separatists
