Tamerlan Tsarnaev buried in the USA
Tamerlan Tsarnaev, a suspect of committing the Boston Marathon terror act was buried at night on May 9 in the United States; the place of burial is not disclosed.
The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that Tsarnaev's funeral had been anticipated in Worcester (MA); however, local residents held a series of protests demanding to bury him outside the United States. According to unofficial data, the burial was also denied in Connecticut and New Jersey, as well as in the city of Cambridge. In his turn, the Mayor of Boston spoke in favour of delivery of Tamerlan Tsarnaev's body to Russia.
The funeral took place on the next day after Gary Gemm, the Worcester Police Chief, made a request to provide a place for Tsarnaev's burial, the "NBC News" reports.
The fact of Tsarnaev's burial was confirmed by the Worcester police; however, the place of burial was not specified, the "Boston.com" reports.
