ALBAWABA - In a horrifying development, four suspects who are thought to have carried out the horrific incident in Moscow have been taken into custody by Russian officials.
Remarkably, footage that was made public by Russian media shows one of the people in custody making a terrifying confession. The confession claims that in exchange for money, the attackers were given instructions to kill people at random at a performance venue.
During questioning, the suspects—who are allegedly connected to ISIS—confessed that they were paid $5,400 to take part in the attack. They made the heart-stopping admission that they had been deliberately stalking concertgoers in order to get money.
The suspects described the dark instructions they were given, stating that posts on social networking sites encouraged them to commit the horrible deed. They also revealed that they received an offer for their participation in the attack of half a million rubles, or about $5,400.
The new video shows scenes of violence and torture inflicted on the suspects during interrogation, raising questions about the legitimacy and morality of the questioning procedure despite the arrests.
This startling discovery has shocked the whole country of Russia and sparked discussions on the reasons behind these crimes and the steps that should be taken to stop them from happening again. Authorities are still looking into the Moscow incident and trying to apprehend those responsible.
