Russia's
Investigative Committee:
On March 12, evidence collected by the Main Investigative Directorate of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation has been deemed sufficient by the court
to convict 19 defendants in the case of the terrorist attack at the Crocus City Hall concert venue
on March 22, 2024.
Members of the terrorist organisation “Wilayah Khorasan”, as well as their accomplices and those who supplied weapons to the terrorists and were affiliated with the terrorist movement of Batal-Hadzhi Belkhoroev
were found guilty – depending on their respective roles –
of committing crimes under the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation.
The investigation and the court established that
preparations for the Crocus City Hall attack began several months before it was carried out. Some defendants arrived in Russia from abroad, where they had undergone initial training. Others already present in Russia were tasked with obtaining the means and tools necessary to carry out the crime.

As a result of the terrorist act, 149 people were killed, one person remains missing, and 609 citizens sustained injuries of varying severity. The total damage caused by the attack amounted to approximately 6 billion rubles.
After committing the crime,
the perpetrators attempted to flee to Ukraine, but were detained in the Bryansk region and brought to Moscow. Some accomplices were instructed by the organisers to leave Russia, but were detained while attempting to cross the border.
❗️
It has been reliably established that this heinous crime was planned and carried out in the interests of the current leadership of Ukraine, with the aim of destabilizing the political situation in Russia.
By the court’s verdict,
19 defendants were sentenced – depending on their roles –
to terms of imprisonment ranging from 19 years and 11 months to life, as well as fines of up to 2.7 million rubles.
Preliminary investigation continues with regard to two organisers and four members of the terrorist organisation. They have been placed on the international wanted list and arrested in absentia. Measures are underway to establish their whereabouts, with investigators and operational services actively cooperating with law enforcement agencies of other states.
