Teenage widow 'likely Moscow metro bomber' - police | |
The 17-year-old widow of a North Caucasus militant is suspected of being one of the suicide bombers who attacked the Moscow metro on Monday. Police in southern Russia confirmed to the BBC that they had given Moscow colleagues information about Dzhennet Abdurakhmanova, from Dagestan. The morning rush-hour bombings killed 39 people and injured more than 70, most of whom are still in hospital. Dagestan, like nearby Chechnya, is struggling to quell militant violence. A police spokesman said Dzhennet Abdurakhmanova had been married to a leading Islamist militant who was killed by Russian security forces at the end of last year. He would not confirm that she was definitely one of the metro bombers. But a photograph of her published in a leading Russian newspaper, Kommersant, does bear a strong resemblance to a picture of the remains of one of the suicide bombers, the BBC's Richard Galpin reports from Moscow. | |
