Update: I thought the Muslim community wanted nothing to do with Tsarnaev?
(Boston Globe) — The remains of suspected Boston Marathon bomber Tamerlan Tsarnaev have been buried in a Muslim cemetery in Doswell, a small community in central Virginia about 15 miles from the state capital of Richmond.
Tsarnaev’s remains are interred at the Al-Barzakh Cemetery, the first Muslim cemetery in central Virginia, according to two sources briefed on the situation. Officials from the cemetery could not immediately be reached for comment.
The burial was coordinated by a Virginia woman who saw news reports about the protest outside the Worcester funeral home, where it had languished for nearly a week, and decided to help. She said today that she had reached out to the Islamic Society of Greater Richmond and asked if they could help facilitate the burial. The society then secured a burial plot in the cemetery and coordinated the body’s transfer Wednesday night.
