Alu Dadaschewitsch Alkhanov ( Cyrillic Алу Дадашевич Алханов ; born January 20, 1957 in Kirovsky , Kazakh SSR ) is a Russian-Chechen politician and currently Vice Minister of Justice of the Russian Federation .

Alkhanov's parents, like all other Chechens, were brutally resettled from Chechnya by Stalin in 1944 . Under Khrushchev , the family returned to Chechnya and settled in Urus-Matan .

Alkhanov was formerly a police officer, then a police general and from April 2004 Minister of the Interior until the death of the assassinated President Akhmed Kadyrov . When Russian troops captured the capital Grozny from the Chechen separatists in the First Chechnya War in 1995 , Alkhanov took over the management of the railway police . During the attack by the rebels in 1996, he and his men defended the Grozny train station - something that the Russian media extolled as a heroic deed.

Alkhanov was injured in the assassination attempt against A.Kadyrov on May 9, 2004 in the "Dynamo Stadium" in Grozny.

In August 2004 he was elected president of the country with around 74 percent of the vote. International election observers described the election as undemocratic. In contrast to other politicians in the country, Alkhanov has always been on the side of Moscow.

As a member of the Russian delegation, Alkhanov accompanied Vladimir Putin during his visit to Germany at the beginning of April 2005. Alkhanov spoke to Federal Chancellor Gerhard Schröder about Germany's humanitarian and financial assistance to the provinces of Chechnya that had been destroyed by war and encouraged German investments to rebuild the crisis-ridden republic.

In mid-February 2007 Alkhanov resigned from the office of president. The Russian President Vladimir Putin appointed him shortly afterwards to the Russian Vice-Minister of Justice and put the Chechen Prime Minister Ramzan Kadyrov as the new Chechen president.
