In Tajikistan, law enforcement officials took relatives of those accused in the case of the terrorist attack in the Crocus City Hall near Moscow for questioning. This was reported by the Tajik service of Radio Liberty/Ozoda.

A relative of one of the accused – Saidakram Rajabalizod – told journalists that after the terrorist attack, Rajabalizod’s mother, his brother, his wife and two uncles were taken to Dushanbe for questioning. The family lives in the city of Vahdat.

Journalists went to the home of the second defendant in Hissar – Faridun Shamsiddin – but did not find his parents and wife. One of his relatives, without introducing himself, said that “Faridun’s parents, wife and mother-in-law were also taken to Dushanbe for questioning.” In the house of Muhammadsobir Fayzov in Dushanbe, journalists also did not find relatives of the accused.

According to a source from Radio Ozoda, a group of Russian investigators arrived in Tajikistan to interrogate relatives of the accused. The official structures of both countries have not yet announced anything about it.
