REGION  28 March 2024 - 14:40

In a shocking revelation, it has been reported that the terrorists involved in the heinous attack on the Crocus City Hall concert hall near Moscow were under the influence of psychotropic substances designed to disable fear.

The disclosure comes from the Baza Telegram channel, shedding light on the harrowing circumstances surrounding the tragic event.

The perpetrators, identified as Shamsutdin Fariduni, Saidakrami Rachabalizoda, Muhammadsobir Fayzov, and Dalerzhon Mirzoyev, were found to have traces of a psychotropic substance in their bloodstreams, altering their perception of reality. While the specific name of the substance remains undisclosed, its effect on the individuals' mental state raises grave concerns about the planning and execution of the attack.

Investigations have revealed that the terrorists made multiple visits to Crocus in preparation for their nefarious act. Fariduni Shamsutdin was confirmed to have been inside the concert hall on March 7, supported by photographic evidence inadvertently captured by a photographer on-site. Additionally, testimony from a taxi driver who ferried Shamsutdin from the concert hall to the village of Putilkovo corroborates his presence.

Another suspect was observed in Crocus on two separate occasions, on March 10 and 14, further implicating a calculated plan behind the attack. Furthermore, on March 21, eyewitnesses reported sightings of the terrorists at a Gazpromneft gas station in the vicinity of Strogino and the Moscow Ring Road. Notably, they were seen refuelling a white Renault car, believed to have been the vehicle used in their attempted escape following the terrorist assault.

The revelation of the terrorists' altered mental state due to psychotropic substances adds a troubling layer to the investigation, prompting authorities to delve deeper into the circumstances leading up to the attack. As the investigation unfolds, questions linger about the source and motive behind the administration of such substances and the extent of their influence on the perpetrators' actions.
