Who is Alexander Chernogorov?
Alexander Leonidovich Chernogorov was the governor of Stavropol Krai in the southern European part of Russia. As candidate for the Communists he defeated his predecessor Petr Marchenko in 1996, and was re-elected governor in 2000. Chernogorov was the leader of the Komsomol and a member of the State Duma. He holds the military rank of captain. Chernogorov has decried Jehovah's Witnesses and Wahhabism as "dangerous cults" that threaten state order. Stavropol Krai is not far from Chechnya.
In late 2005, news media in Russia were reporting that Chernogorov may not continue as governor after his current term.
