The story of the 2 Russian brothers suspected in the Boston bombings
Two Russians bothers, 26 year old Tamerlan and 19 year old Dzhokhar, a second-year medical student in the U.S, are suspected to be behind the Boston Marathon bombings. Tamerlan was killed in a shootout with police last night, his brother would be captured after a furious manhunt that shut down much of Boston.. Below is their story from Boston Associated Press:
The Tsarnaev family arrived in the United States, seeking refuge from strife in their homeland.
Tamerlan, who was 26 when he was killed overnight in a shootout, dropped out after studying accounting as a part-time student at Bunker Hill Community College in Boston for just three semesters. He was married with a young daughter.The Tsarnaev family arrived in the United States, seeking refuge from strife in their homeland.
Tamerlan identified himself then as a Muslim and said he did not drink or smoke and he hoped to fight for the U.S. Olympic team and become a naturalized American.
He was an amateur boxer, listed as a competitor in a National Golden Gloves competition in 2009 and according to the website spotcrime.com, he was arrested for domestic violence in July 2009, after assaulting his girlfriend.
Dzhokhar A. Tsarnaev,19,(at large),was on the school's wrestling team. And in May 2011, his senior year, he was awarded a $2,500 scholarship from the city of Cambridge, Mass to pursue higher education.
Before moving to the United States, he attended School No. 1 in Makhachkala, the capital of Dagestan, a predominantly Muslim republic in Russia's North Caucasus that has become an epicenter of the Islamic insurgency that spilled over from Chechnya. He speaks Chechen as well as English and Russian. His world view is described as "Islam" and he says his personal goal is "career and money."
Dzhokhar and his older brother, Tamerlan had been living together on Norfolk Street in Cambridge near Boston and have been in the United States for about a decade. They came from the Russian region near Chechnya, which has been plagued by an Islamic insurgency stemming from separatist wars.
Now,Tsarnaev is on the run, described as "armed and dangerous" and suspected of the Boston Marathon bombing.
This is a country where government and security agencies are working,they turned blurred images of the terrorists to actual images, I am highly impressed....thumbs up to US security operatives.
