Biography

Magomedshamil Magomedovich Abduragimov (Russian: Магомедшамиль Магомедович Абдурагимов — ethnic Kumyk; 1980–October 2005), was a senior lieutenant and operative of criminal police. He was posthumously awarded the title Hero of the Russian Federation for preventing a major terrorist act.

In October 2005 during a military check-in of the selected address at Pervomayskaya Street in Mahachkala of the Republic of Dagestan, a group of operatives was attacked, with two of them wounded and two killed. While major Sergey Podvalny (also awarded title of Hero posthumously) did not let bandits leave the surrounded house until the end, Magomedshamil entered the house and neutralize the terrorist who was planting an explosive bomb.

Magomedshamil was the only son of his mother Marzhanat Abduragimovna.
