Four arrested in connection with Beslan school siege

Russian prosecutors say they have arrested four people in connection with the school siege in Beslan last year, which left more than 330 people dead.

Deputy Prosecutor General Nikolai Shepel said the four were suspected of helping plan the siege in North Ossetia and other attacks in Ingushetia.

He said five other suspects were killed as they resisted arrest.

Mr Shepel did not say when or where the latest arrests took place.
