'Misha' Speaks: An Interview with the Alleged Boston Bomber's 'Svengali'
Today I was able to meet Misha, whose real name is Mikhail Allakhverdov. Having been referred by a family in Boston that was close to the Tsarnaevs, I found Allakverdov at his home in Rhode Island, in a lower middle class neighborhood, where he lives in modest, tidy apartment with his elderly parents. He confirmed he was a convert to Islam and that he had known Tamerlan Tsarnaev, but he flatly denied any part in the bombings. I wasnt his teacher. If I had been his teacher, I would have made sure he never did anything like this, Allakhverdov said.
