Ruslan Tsarni, the uncle of the Boston bombing suspects, has stated that he only took the body on behalf of his brother but wanted nothing to do with it. After searching for a while, Tsarni and the Worcester funeral home found a cemetery in Doswell, Virginia that accepted the body. There were many rumors saying that Tsarni requested a second autopsy, but he is denying that saying, “I did not do that, I did not do anything” and that he has not told Tamerlan’s parents where exactly he is buried.
