Nearly two months have passed since the terrorist attack at Crocus City Hall in Russia. In connection with the attack, the police detained several people, including four alleged perpetrators.
One of them recently appeared in court in Moscow. "Appeared" is the right word, as the man was in a wheelchair, and his condition is quite alarming. He looks as if he has been severely tortured or is on psychotropic drugs.
In this case, no scenario can be ruled out. Let's recall that in April, one of the detainees was a 30-year-old Chechen. Security forces tortured him after his arrest. He had broken ribs and a broken spine, choke marks on his neck, and bruises visible on the rest of his body.
Over 140 killed in the attack
After the terrorist attack, the Federal Security Service announced the detention of 11 people suspected in this case. The courts arrested ten people.
On March 22 at Crocus City Hall, terrorists attacked the audience during a concert, opening fire and detonating explosive devices. A fire broke out, causing the roof of the building to collapse.
According to the statement from the Moscow branch of the Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations on Saturday, 144 people died, and 550 were injured.
