Moscow, Russia
Uzbek citizen Akhmadzhon Kurbonov, charged by Russian authorities with the assassination of a senior Russian general and his assistant, sits in a courtroom cage at the Basmanny district court. The head of the military’s chemical, biological and radiological weapons unit, Lt Gen Igor Kirillov, was killed along with his assistant when a bomb hidden in an electric scooter went off as the two men left a building in a residential area in south-east Moscow.
