Among the several videos circulating online, one shows one of the suspects appearing to confess while kneeling with his hands tied behind his back.
Videos circulated online show three men, who Moscow claims were responsible for the attack at the Crocus City Hall on Friday, allegedly being arrested by a group of soldiers. One of the suspects is seen kneeling, trembling, with his hands tied behind his back, apparently admitting to carrying out the massacre, which claimed the lives of over 140 people.
He was allegedly caught on camera in the Bryansk region after being found hiding in a tree while attempting to escape to Ukraine. The Islamic State group claimed responsibility for the massacre, saying that it occurred « within the context of a raging war between the Islamic State and countries fighting Islam. »
The Face of Terror
Among the several videos circulating online, one shows one of the suspects appearing to confess while kneeling with his hands tied behind his back. He is asked by a soldier, « Exactly what was offered? » to which he replies: « To do these things for money. »
He is then asked: « Which things? What exactly? » He replies: « These things, to kill. »
A soldier then asks: « To kill who? » He replies: « They sent the location [on the Telegram messenger]. »
The man further said he was asked to enter the venue and eliminate anyone, regardless of their identity. He said that he had flown from Turkey on March 4 and had received directives from unidentified people via Telegram to carry out the attack in exchange for one million roubles [$10,000].
