Chechen Terrorists to be Buried in Pigskin  

According to the Moskovski Komsomol newspaper, Russian 
security forces have decided to bury the terrorists 
from last's week's hostage siege wrapped in pig's skin. 
The aim is to deter potential Islamic terrorists from 
future attacks.

Shahidi (Jihad martyrs) believe by their nefarious acts 
that they ascend immediately to heaven. Using their 
beliefs against them, wrapping their corpses in 
'unclean' pigskin prevents them from entering heaven 
for eternity.
