Judge lists weapons used in Beslan school siege
A Russian judge today listed weapons used by militants and federal troops in the deadly Beslan school hostage-taking, fuelling anger from victims’ relatives who accused authorities of covering up excessive use of force during the rescue operation, which they blame for some of the deaths.
The account was part of the reading of the Vladikavkaz verdict in the trial of Nur-Pashi Kulayev, the sole surviving suspected attacker, for whom prosecutors have requested the death penalty.
