The suspects in last week’s Moscow terrorist attack were linked to Ukrainian nationalists, the Russian Investigative Committee stated on Thursday, citing preliminary findings. The perpetrators had received “significant sums of money” from Ukraine, the law enforcement agency said.
The investigators have obtained “substantiated evidence” that the suspected assailants received funding from Ukraine in the form of cryptocurrency, which was then used to prepare the terrorist attack, the statement read.
Law enforcement officers also identified and detained another suspect who was allegedly involved in financing the attack, the Investigative Committee said, without identifying the individual.

Do you believe a country should be held accountable for the actions of its nationals abroad if they are linked to terrorism?
@VOTA2އަހަރު2Y
What is your reaction to the use of cryptocurrencies in funding illegal activities, such as terrorism?
@VOTA2އަހަރު2Y
How much trust do you place in evidence provided by a country in a politically charged investigation?
