Second metro bomber named

RUSSIAN investigators have identified the second Moscow metro suicide bomber as a woman in her late 20s from the volatile, mainly Muslim province of Dagestan, officials said.

“Mariam Sharipova, born in 1982… set off an explosive device at the Lubyanka metro station,” the Investigative Committee of the Prosecutor General’s Office said in a statement.

The announcement was issued four days after officials confirmed the other attacker was 17-year-old Dzhennet Abdurakhmanova.
