I think they have connections to the 'Russian mafia'.
The first is a form of torture, the other two, types of gangsters...could that be true??

"One dictionary of political language notes that
'zamochit' has been the most popular verb in recent
years."

"Still, it is very clearly a vulgarism that originated
in criminal slang, one of the many expressions that
have recently found their way into public speech
which the linguist V. Khimik has called ‘criminonyms’.
The verb zamochit seems to be linked
to the expression 'mokroye delo' (‘a wet thing’, i.e.
'murder'), occurrences of which were documented
as early as the 1920s and 30s."

"One dictionary records an ‘ironic’ use:
‘To remove from official positions', 'to
deprive of capacity for action'. Example: The current
regime’s main instinct is to neutralise [zamochit]
Berezovsky, to strip him of his political and
media resources. (Moskovsky komsomolets, 6 December
2001)’ "

"This suggests an ambivalence between two meanings
of zamochit: ‘to pummel’, ‘to beat cruelly’
(compare mochitsya as an intensive synonym of
dratsya, to scuffle), and ‘to eliminate’, ‘to kill’,
which puts zamochit in the same group as zarezat,
zavalit, zagasit (‘to stab to death’, ‘to knock
off’, ‘to extinguish’). The first meaning very theatrically
suggests bloodshed; the second stresses
extermination."

"Solntsevo (Russian: Со́лнцево) is a district in Western Administrative Okrug of the Russian capital city of Moscow."

"It originated in 1938 as a dacha settlement and was named after the Russian word for Sun: солнце (solntse)."

"Solntsevo has given its name to a major organisation of organized crime, the Solntsevskaya bratva."

"Solntsevo District" : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solntsevo_District

"The Solntsevskaya bratva, or Solntsevskaya brotherhood (Russian:Солнцевская братва) are a powerful organized crime family from Moscow, Russia. It is named after the Solntsevo neighborhood in the city."

"The enormous Izmailovo Hotel complex was built in 1979 on the site of the historic Izmailovo village and Royal Estate, whose remaining buildings are clustered just a 10-minute walk east of the hotel. Owned by the Romanov boyars since the 16th century, the estate was the favorite retreat of Tsar Alexei and his son, the future Emperor Peter The Great."

"During the 1980 Moscow Olympics the complex was used to accommodate many of the athletes attending the games."

"Of particularly interest to tourists, is the neighbouring Izmailovo Weekend market."

"Zamochit'", litreally -to soak, stands for "to kill", "to destroy" in Russian slang. Jokingly, it can also stand for "to kick butt".

Solntsevo is a region of Moscow, surrounding metro stop 'Solntsevo'. Mafia gang is usually called "Solntsevkslaya mafia", or simply "Solntsevskie". The gang can also be refered to by the name of the region

Islmailovo-same as above, an area north of Moscow, I believe, the gang is called "Islamilovskaya mafia".

The sentence "Zamochit' solntsevo i izmailovo" basically mean to destroy the two above mentioned mafia groups.

Hope this helps!

zamochit' - to kick someone's *** (just as crude in Russian as it is in English)
solntsevo - the sun's, or could just be a place.
izmailovo - probably also a place name.
