Dead Boston bombing suspect buried: Police
Tamerlan Tsarnaev, the dead suspect of Boston marathon bombing is buried, ending a weeklong search for a place willing to take his body
Published in Ahram Online on 10 - 05 - 2013

The body of Boston Marathon bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev was entombed in an unknown gravesite Thursday after police said an anonymous person stepped forward to help arrange the secret burial.
The burial ended a weeklong search for a place willing to take Tsarnaev's body out of Worcester, where his remains had been stored at a funeral home amid protests. In that time, the cities where Tsarnaev lived and died and his mother's country all refused the remains.
Amid the frustration, Worcester's police chief urged an end to the quandary. "We are not barbarians," he said. "We bury the dead."
By Thursday, police announced: "As a result of our public appeal for help, a courageous and compassionate individual came forward to provide the assistance needed to properly bury the deceased."
Police in Worcester, west of Boston, didn't say where the body was taken, only that it was no longer in the city.
The director of Graham Putnam & Mahoney Funeral Parlors, Peter Stefan, also refused to say where the body was buried or to speak to media gathered outside the funeral home.
Tsarnaev's burial place is expected to become known with the release of his death certificate.
Tamerlan and his brother, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, are accused of setting off two shrapnel-packed pressure-cooker bombs April 15 near the marathon finish line in an attack that killed three people and injured more than 260.
Days later, the brothers engaged in a firefight in which Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, was shot by police and then run over by his fleeing brother. A wounded Dzhokar Tsarnaev, 19, ditched the car and was later found hiding in a boat parked in a Watertown backyard.
Tamerlan Tsarnaev was pronounced dead at a hospital in Boston, where he could have been buried under state law, because the city was his place of death. But Boston officials said they wouldn't take the body because Tsarnaev lived in Cambridge, and Cambridge also refused.
The mother of the brothers, ethnic Chechens from southern Russia who lived in Massachusetts, said officials in Russia, where she lives, also wouldn't accept the body.
In addition, Stefan said scores of individual offers fell through because cemeteries in their communities wouldn't take the corpse.
On Thursday, Gov. Deval Patrick called the weeklong drama to find a burial site a circus, but said he doesn't know where the site is. Patrick said he hopes attention can now return to caring for the victims of the bombing.
The family of the youngest of the three killed, 8-year-old Martin Richard, said Richard's 7-year-old sister has undergone a "milestone" 11th operation on her left leg, which she lost below the knee.
The surgery performed Wednesday on Jane Richard at Boston Children's Hospital closed the wound and will allow for the eventual fitting of a prosthesis, the family said in a statement Thursday.
The family said that because of the surgeries, infections and other complication, the girl was unable to communicate with her parents and doctors for two weeks, so she did not know at first that her brother was dead.
"There are not words to describe how hard sharing this heartbreaking news was on all of us," said the family, which was within feet of the second blast.
In Washington, Boston Police Commissioner Edward Davis told Congress on Thursday that the FBI did not initially share with Boston police the warnings from Russia's security service in 2011 about Tamerlan Tsarnaev. At the time, four city police representatives were on a federal terrorism task force.
Davis' testimony at the hearing on the government's response to the attack revealed a gap in information-sharing between federal and local officials.
The FBI closed its assessment of Tsarnaev after a cursory investigation, and Davis said that police might not have uncovered or disrupted the plot even if they had fully investigated Tsarnaev's family.
"I can't say that I would have come to a different conclusion based upon the information that was known at that particular time," he said.
