STORYLINE:
A suspect in the Russia concert hall attack, which left more than 130 dead, arrived at a Moscow district court on Sunday night.

There was a heavy police presence around the court, which is expected to determine pretrial restrictions for the men, who are suspected of opening fire on crowds of concertgoers at the capital’s Crocus City Hall.

One of the suspects, Dalerdzhon Mirzoyev, was led blindfolded into the courtroom. His blindfold was removed and a black eye was visible.

Friday’s attack, which has been claimed by an affiliate of the Islamic State group, is the deadliest on Russian soil in years.

Russian authorities arrested four suspected attackers on Saturday, with seven more detained on suspicion of involvement in the attack, Russian President Vladimir Putin said in a nighttime address to the nation, on Saturday.

He claimed they were captured while fleeing to Ukraine, something that Kyiv firmly denies.
