Tsarnaev brothers: Loners or members of the "Sleeping Cell"

The 19-year-old Johar Tsarnaev, suspected of organizing explosions at the Boston Marathon, is seriously wounded in the throat and, perhaps, can never speak and even more so-to answer the questions of investigators. According to CNN, a source in law enforcement agencies announced this. The information was partially confirmed by the Governor of Massachusetts Patrick Deval. "I hope that the suspect will survive, because we have a million questions to him, to which he should give an answer," the governor said.

According to CBS , Tsarnaev tried to shoot himself at the time of his arrest - he put the gunpoint in his mouth and pressed the trigger, as a result of which he was injured in his neck. Now Tsarnaev, under enhanced security, is located in the Boston Beth Israel Deacones Medical Center. The authorities do not publicly comment on the injuries, but an anonymous source in the clinic reported that he had an intubation of the trachea, after which the alleged terrorist was placed in a drug sleep.

It is already known that investigators intend to interrogate Tsarnaev without a lawyer and without reading his rights. According to the law, the suspect must be informed about his right to remain silent and use the services of a lawyer. According to BBC , it was decided to make an exception for Tsarnaev: according to federal prosecutors, the information received during interrogation is necessary to ensure public security.

Republican senators John McCain and Lindsay Graham called to consider Johar Tsarnaev as an “enemy combatant” (this status is used in relation to prisoners in Guantanamo) and not recognize the usual rights of accused of criminal offenses. “Now we must focus on the extraction of this suspect intelligence information that will help our country understand how this attack occurred and what can follow in the future,” the Senators said .

Tsarnaev will be interrogated, as soon as he comes into consciousness, but human rights activists from the American Union of Civil Freedoms have already criticized investigators. In their opinion, the restriction of the rights of the suspect is permissible only in the event of a direct and immediate threat, it cannot be unlimited and will reduce the value of the testimony in court. "Mentally, we are with all the victims of this tragedy and the rest of Boston, but we believe that we cannot deviate from laws. Deprivation of rights is an anti -American step," the human rights activists believe.

The lawyer will most likely be protected by Tsarnaev. The office of the federal lawyer in Massachusetts Miriam Konrad said that it is expected that it is they who will work with Johar Tsarnaev.

According to the police, the Tsarnaev brothers are loners and they have no accomplices who are ready to carry out new terrorist attacks in the United States. “I think that only two brothers are involved in this matter,” said CBS, Chief of Wetertown, Chief of Watertown, CBS .

“All the data I got acquainted, they say that Boston, Wetertown and the entire northeast of the United States are safe,” the policeman added. He revealed some details of the operation: the brothers managed to track down on the signal of the mobile phone of the owner of the car, which they stole.

The FBI believes that behind the brothers stood the so -called “sleeping cell” of terrorists who prepares agents for years, and then waiting for the moment to use them, writes Daily Mirror , referring to the source close to the investigation. "We have no doubt that they were not alone. The devices used for the explosion of two bombs are very complex, this information cannot be found in Google. Someone gave the brothers such knowledge, our task is to find them," the source said.

The connections of the brothers with the extremist organization "Imrat Caucasus", headed by Doku Umarov, are also checked. According to Fox News , this was reported by a source in the investigating authorities. According to him, now investigators are checking the e -mail of Tamerlana Tsarnaev. The investigation is a special suspicion of Tamerlana’s trip to Russia. In early 2012, he visited Chechnya and Dagestan.

The Russian security forces have not yet confirmed the Tsarnaev’s connection with the Caucasus Imrat, ”a source in power structures told Interfax. “Currently, reliable information about the involvement of the Tsarnaevs in extremists“ Imrat, the Caucasus “No,” the agency’s interlocutor noted. At the same time, he emphasized that any operational data regarding the alleged organizers of the attack in Boston will be checked if there are appropriate appeals of the American side.

The question of who the Tsarnaev brothers are, today concern not only the inquiry officers. According to Radio Liberty , Tamerlan and Johar Tsarnaevs were legally in the United States. Tamerlan was engaged in boxing and told friends about plans to get to the US Olympic team and get American citizenship. The last year he lived in Cambridge, Massachusetts and studied as an engineer at the Bunker Hill Community College. Tamerlan considered himself a "very religious" man. The friend of Tamerlana, a girl of Portugal-Italian origin, after meeting him turned to Islam, but later their relationship was divided, in 2009 Tsarnaev was arrested when he beat her.

Johar Tsarnaev graduated from the American school in Boston in 2011, and in 2012 received American citizenship. On his page on the VKontakte social network, he wrote that he adheres to Islamic religion, and his main goals in life are “career and money”. Johar Tsarnaev wrote that he did not smoke and does not drink alcohol, but in one of the notes on Twitter he admitted that like the heroes of the Breaking Bad series “loves metamaphatamine”.

Despite the fact that the fake accounts of the alleged terrorist on Twitter are multiplying day after day, one of the Friends of the Tsarnaev family confirmed the American television channel ABC that the @j_tsar account really belongs to the Tsarnaev Jr.

April 15, on the day the attack occurred, Johar wrote : "There is no love in the heart of this city, people, be careful." On April 17, he informed the subscribers : “I am a fuel guy,” and the last in his account was a retweet of records that Mufti Ismail Menk, a preacher from Saudi Arabia on the same day: “Your behavior can take your beauty from you, no matter how well you look, and can increase your beauty, making you irresistible.”

The network has preserved the registration record of Tamerlana Tsarnaev on the server of the Amazon online store. Judging by the VISH , it was interested in the technology of manufacturing fake documents at home and ancient history. The list of books that interests him is a brochure of AFP correspondent Sebastian Smith "Mount Allah".

The fate of the brothers on the website of The New Yorker is analyzed in detail by the journalist and writer David belt. Having briefly telling the history of the Chechen wars, he concludes that the Tsarnaev brothers grew up and formed in America, but Johar successfully adapted to American society than Tamerlan. The uncle of the brothers Ruslan partially confirmed this, calling Johar a “sweet and quiet boy”, and Tamerlana “a loser and a coward”. The father of the Tsarnaevs Anzor believes that his sons "set up special services." A teacher of one of the Makhachkala gymnasiums confirmed that the Tsarnaev studied in Dagestan with his two sisters, and moved from Kyrgyzstan to Makhachkala.

According to the Radio Liberty source, in the US, the brothers lived in the same house with six other family members. The mother of the Tsarnaev Brothers Zubeidat in June last year was detained for stealing things from a women's clothing store worth more than one and a half thousand dollars.

On April 15, 2013, during the Boston Marathon , two bombs made of pressure cooks exploded at the finish of the race. Three people were killed-an eight-year-old boy, a 29-year-old woman and student of Boston University from China. About 180 people were injured.
