The Moscow City Court on April 3 rejected an appeal filed by Isroil Islomov against his two-month detention after his arrest on suspicion of involvement in last month's attack on the Crocus City Hall entertainment center that claimed more than 140 lives. Islomov and his two sons were arrested on March 25 on suspicion of selling a car to four ethnic Tajik men who are accused of carrying out the March 22 terrorist attack. Islomov pleaded not guilty. Ten men from Central Asia, mostly ethnic Tajiks, have been arrested for their alleged involvement in the attack.
