Tamerlan Tsarnev’s Family: Leaves Behind Wife & Daughter
Before engaging in the deadly April 15 terrorist attack, Tamerlan lived a seemingly normal and quiet life with his wife Katherine and their daughter, Zahara. A neighbor tells the Daily Mail that she converted to Islam for her husband. The source says:I knew she was married and she had converted to Islam. She went away to college about three or four years ago, and I saw her a year later and she was dressed in the Islamic style.
Her hair was covered and she was wearing very baggy, flowy clothing.
The source also says the couple had moved to Massachusetts, but would come up to Rhode Island most weekends — until the wife moved back home with her family, and Tamerlan wasn’t to be seen. The source adds:
She moved back home and was living at home with the baby. I never saw him again, I thought maybe he’s gone away or he’s busy with school.
