Four suspects in the Moscow concert hall attack that killed at least 137 people were ordered to be detained, pending trial, Moscow’s Basmanny district court ruled Sunday.
All four men have been charged with acts of terrorism in connection with the attack and face life in prison, said a statement from Moscow’s Basmanny district court.
The suspects are Dalerdzhon Mirzoyev, Saidakrami Rachabalizoda, Shamsidin Fariduni, and Mukhammadsobir Faizov, according to Moscow courts’ official Telegram channel.
The court said the suspects, identified by Russian media as all being citizens of the ex-Soviet republic of Tajikistan living in Russia, would be remanded in pre-trial custody until May 22. Three of the four had pleaded guilty to all charges, it said.
