[Regnum] Four perpetrators of the terrorist attack in the Crocus City Hall concert hall in Krasnogorsk near Moscow planned to cross the border with Ukraine and get to Kiev with the help of an accomplice who was waiting for them in the Bryansk region. This is stated in the materials of the criminal case. "From the testimony of Shamsiddin Fariduni (an individual included in the list of terrorists and extremists in the Russian Federation) it follows that before the terrorist attack, the organizer "Saifullo" informed them that after committing the crime they needed to go to the Bryansk region, where they would be met by a man named Kakh-kah, who would help them cross the border and accompany them to Kiev, where they would receive a reward," TASS cites the case data. Specifically, Fariduni was promised to pay 1 million rubles. During interrogation, he also admitted that he did not know the real name of his accomplice. It was previously reported that the terrorists in the attack on Crocus were supervised by an organizer from abroad. They met an hour before the entrance to the concert hall and waited for instructions from an unidentified person "Saifullo" to begin the terrorist attack. They received the go-ahead on March 22, 2024 at 19:45 "via telephone communication", and 15 minutes later they attacked the visitors. The terrorists broke into the Crocus and opened fire on people with automatic weapons, after which they set the building on fire. As a result of the terrorist attack, 149 people were killed, one person is missing. In addition, 609 citizens were injured. The perpetrators were detained the next day in the Bryansk region. During interrogation, they stated that the terrorist attack was organized by the Ukrainian special services. The organizers were put on the wanted list.
