A Moscow court is proffering charges and considering pre-trial detention for the prime suspects apprehended after Friday’s massacre
The court in Basmanny in the capital convened late on Sunday to hear the case of the prime suspects, detained in the aftermath of the deadly Crocus City Hall attack, which claimed lives of over 130 people.
The suspects, all of whom are foreign nationals, have appeared before court individually. Thus far, it has slapped terrorism charges on 32-year-old, Dalerdzhon Mirzoyev, with the suspect facing a life sentence if found guilty.
