The 15-year teenager was found in possession of handwritten notes with instructions on how to manufacture improvised explosive devices and conduct attacks on educational facilities
VOLGOGRAD, June 15. /TASS/. A 15-year old Volgograd teenager, who plotted an attack on a school using explosives, was put under arrest. The investigation speculates that he could have had accomplices, the Volgograd Region Directorate of the Investigative Committee told journalists.
"At the behest of the investigator’s appeal, the court placed the teenager into custody. The adolescent has already been charged. The investigation does not rule out that he could have had accomplices. This version is being looked into the moment," the Directorate said.
Earlier, Russia’s Federal Security Service apprehended a 15-year old Volgograd resident, who planned an attack on a school with an explosive device and Molotov cocktails. The teenager was found in possession of handwritten notes with instructions on how to manufacture improvised explosive devices and conduct attacks on educational facilities.
A criminal proceeding was initiated against the adolescent on charges of illegal manufacturing explosive substances. That said, the investigators are looking into additional charges of plotting to murder two or more people.
