".. I learned about the incident from TV. My opinion is: 

the special services have framed my children, because they are practicing Muslims.

Why did they kill Tamerlan?

He was supposed to be caught alive.

The younger is on the run now.

He was a sophomore at a medical school in the U.S. We expected him to come home for vacation. Now I don't know what's going to happen.

Tell you once again: I believe special services have framed my children," the man said.

Anzor categorically declined the offer of meeting in person.


Father of alleged suspects in Boston Marathon bombing tells AP son who is still on the loose is a smart and accomplished young man.

The FBI has released a new photo of the second Boston Marathon suspect being actively pursued.


The Tsarnaev brothers, who were named by the American law enforcement as the main suspects in the Boston marathon bombing case and who were involved in a skirmish near the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, have not been connected with Chechnya in any way for many years said Alvi Karimov the spokesperson for the head of the Republic of Chechnya Ramzan Kadyrov.

"The Boston bombing suspects have nothing to do with Chechnya," Karimov told Interfax on Friday.

"Preliminary information received from corresponding agencies suggests that the Tsarnaev family moved from Chechnya to another region of Russia many years ago. Then the family lived in Kazakhstan for a long time and then emigrated to the United States, where all members got residence permits," Karimov said.
"The persons in question did not live in Chechnya as adults. If they have become 'bad guys' save your questions for those who reared them," he said.
