(Moscow) The Russian FSB have done a fine job of picking up the brothers behind the deadly St Petersberg Metro Bombing from 3 weeks back. First to get picked up 3 days ago was 27 year old Abror Azimov who
masterminded the attack and his older brother 29 year Akram who financed the attack was
picked up yesterday
Akram , had no intention of getting caught , which is why when the FSB looked inside his bumbag/fanny pack they found a RGD-5 hand grenade for personal reasons. The grenade contains a 110-gram charge of TNT with an internal fragmentation liner that produces around 350 fragments and has a lethality radius of 25 metres (82 ft). It can inflict injuries (e.g. penetrating eye wounds) out to 15 metres (49 ft) from the site of detonation. Victims caught within 3 metres (10 ft) of the detonation site are almost certain to be killed or severely wounded.
It is believed that Asimov trained the perpetrator of the
bombing, Akbardzhon Dzhalilov, who left the explosive device in the train and
was also killed in the explosion.
