Without any details on the exact accusations against him, Officials noted he was ordered to be held in detention until at least May 22nd.

On Sunday,  the four men  charged while carrying out the attack are citizens of Tajikistan, also in mainly Muslim Central Asia.

Three more suspects allegedly from the same family,  including one Russian citizen were charged with terror related offences on Monday.

For over 20 years, the Moscow attack is said to be Russia’s bloodiest which was made by the Islamic State group.

Ukraine described the accusations it was involved in as absurd.
