DUSHANBE, April 7, Asia-Plus -- The Tajik Prosecutor-General’s Office will formally bring charges against two Tajik nationals – Masrurjon Yatimov and Najmiddin Muhiddinov -- who are suspected of killing of Ilyas Shurpayev, a reporter for Russia’s Channel One television, before the end of this week,, according to the Tajik Prosecutor-General’s Office.
The source at the Tajik chief prosecutor’s office said that representatives from the Russian chief prosecutor’s office arrived in Dushanbe at the end of last week and they have already handed over a major part of materials of this criminal case to Tajik prosecutors.
