A Turkish security official said on Tuesday that two of the Moscow concert hall attack suspects traveled "freely" to Russia as no arrest warrants were issued against them.

Tajik nationals Rachabalizoda Saidakrami and Shamsidin Fariduni "were able to travel freely between Russia and Türkiye since there was no warrant for their arrest," the official told AFP, speaking on condition of anonymity.

Rachabalizoda Saidakrami, born in 1994 and a citizen of Tajikistan, said he had Russian registration documents but couldn't remember where they were.

Shamsidin Fariduni was born in 1998 in Tajikistan and is a citizen of the Central Asian country. Fariduni was officially employed at a factory in the Russian city of Podolsk and was registered in the city of Krasnogorsk.
