On July 10, Dzhokar Tsarnaev, one of the suspects in the Boston marathon bombing, will have his first court appearance on charges of using and conspiring to use a weapon of mass destruction, a count that carries a possible death penalty.
He and his older brother Tamerlan emigrated as children to the US from the Russian republic of Dagestan, now the scene of an Islamist insurgency. In a rare interview for the World Service program Newshour, the brothers' mother, Zubeidat Tsarnaeva, talked to Tim Franks in Dagestan.
