[Regnum] One of the perpetrators of the Crocus City Hall attack, Saidakram Rachabalizoda (an individual designated as a terrorist and extremist in the Russian Federation), who was sentenced to life in prison, admitted that he enjoyed watching videos with scenes of violence. This was reported on April 25 by a participant in the trial for the terrorist attack at the Moscow region concert hall.

"During interrogation, he stated that he generally enjoyed watching videos of people being executed and various methods of reprisal against the unarmed and helpless," TASS quoted the source as saying.

According to Rachabalizoda's testimony, he became interested in radical Islamic ideology back in 2018 in his native Tajikistan. In the second half of 2023, he was recruited into the extremist Khorasan movement (a terrorist organization banned in Russia) and offered a flight to Turkey. In Aksaray, along with other adherents of the terrorist ideology, he was trained to commit terrorist attacks and received instruction in the use of firearms. He was then transferred to Afghanistan, where he joined a cell of the Islamic State (a terrorist organization banned in Russia).

The Crocus terrorist attack occurred on March 22, 2024. The attackers broke into the building, opened fire, and then set the building on fire. The attack left 150 people dead, one missing, and 609 injured.

The suspects were detained in the Bryansk region, on the border with Ukraine. During interrogation, the perpetrators admitted that the attack was organized by Ukrainian intelligence services. The Investigative Committee stated that the terrorist attack was planned and carried out in the interests of the current Ukrainian leadership, with the aim of destabilizing the political situation in Russia.
