Boston Suspects Parents on the Run
by Anna Nemtsova May 9, 2013 4:45 AM EDT
First reporters hounded them for interviews. Now the mother and father of the Tsarnaev brothers have been kicked out of Chechnya by its president.
The message to the parents of the Boston bombing suspects was clear and unmistakable: pack and go.
And soon after the phone call from the Chechen authorities Tuesday, a car carrying government officials arrived to accompany the couple out of the republic.
The deportation followed a speech by Chechen President Ramzan Kadyrov, in which he referred to the Tsarnaev brothers Tamerlan and Dzhokhar as the worst devils. I will never defend them, never say a word in their support, Kadyrov told a local television station Monday.
In the weeks since the attack on the Boston Marathon that killed three people and wounded 264 others, the suspects father, Anzor, and their mother, Zubeidat, have been on the runhunted first by reporters seeking interviews and now kicked out of Chechnya, where they had gone to escape the media pack in Dagestan.
And apparently the pressure is getting to the parents.
