Russia names blast suspect

RUSSIAN authorities have named a man suspected over last month’s suicide bomb attack on Moscow’s airport, and arrested his teenage brother and sister.

An official with Russia’s top investigative agency in the province of Ingushetia said that the January 24 bombing of Domodedovo airport was carried out by Magomed Yevloyev, 20.

The official said that a court in Ingushetia ordered the arrest of Yevloyev’s 15-year-old brother and 16-year old sister, who are also suspected of involvement in the attack.

Officials have previously said that the bomber was a 20-year-old man from the Caucasus, but did not give his name.

Chechen rebel warlord Doku Umarov has claimed responsibility for the attack which killed 36 people.
