Moscow Suspects Arrested: Terrorism Charges Laid
The four individuals suspected of carrying out the terrorist attack at the Crocus concert hall in Moscow, resulting in 137 deaths, were remanded in pre-trial detention for two months by a Moscow court on Sunday, as reported by AFP via Agerpres.
These individuals, charged with "terrorism," face potential life imprisonment, according to a statement from the Basmanny court in Moscow.
Their pre-trial detention, scheduled to end on May 22, could be extended until their trial, the date for which has not yet been determined.
As per Russian media reports, the identified individuals are citizens of Tajikistan, a former Soviet republic, residing in Russia.
Three out of the four have admitted to being "guilty" of all charges.
The attack, attributed to an affiliated branch of the Islamic State group, is the deadliest incident on Russian territory in recent years.
