Two people seen in a photo with suspected Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev in New York's famed Times Square are being held by authorities on administrative immigration violations, Fox News has confirmed. The two men were identified to Fox News as Dias Kadyrbayev and Azamat Tazhayakov, both citizens of Kazakhstan. They can be seen standing next to Tsarnaev in a photo believed to have been taken in April 2012 in Time square Kadyrbayev and Tazhayakov were arrested April 20 -- five days after the attack at the marathon -- at the Hidden Brook apartments by the FBI and Homeland Security in New Bedford Mass., and they are being detained by Immigrations and Customs Enforcement We learned through the Joint Terrorist Task Force that the Boston Marathon bombers had planned to travel to Manhattan t A law enforcement source also confirmed that task force investigators will be questioning Kadyrbayev and Tazhayakov about their activity last week immediately after a surveillance video of the suspected Boston bombers was released. They also want to know whether the two young men took any action to help Tsarnaev. The source said a "variety of techniques" led investigators to question Kadyrbayev and Tazhayakov, with the goal of seeing whats there -- though they are not charged with any crimes at this time. Kadyrbayev is a former student and Tazhayakov is a current student of UMass Dartmouth, a university spokesman said. Tsarnaev, 19, is registered as a sophomore at the university. Tsarnaev, an ethnic Chechen and U.S. citizen Kadyrbayev's father, Murat Kadyrbayev, told Kazak news website Tengri News that Kadyrbayev and Tazhayakov were in Tsarnaev's social circle but nothing more. The father also said a "TERRORISTA #1" vanity plate on a BMW jointly owned by the two young men was just a joke.

Could these two be the two that slipped in thru the slider door saying they were Boston Globe reporters?
“The source said a “variety of techniques” led investigators to question Kadyrbayev and Tazhayakov, with the goal of seeing whats there — though they are not charged with any crimes at this time. “
Like looking at the bombers Facebook page!? So glad the government is using all tools at their disposal... (Shaking head).
Hmmmmm...good question. These guys look more Chinese to me though. Need to get my Atlas out....not sure where most of these ‘Stan’ countries are.
“Kadyrbayev’s father, Murat Kadyrbayev, told Kazak news website Tengri News that Kadyrbayev and Tazhayakov were in Tsarnaev’s social circle but nothing more. The father also said a “TERRORISTA #1” vanity plate on a BMW jointly owned by the two young men was just a joke.”

Thanks. I had forgetten about that. There are so many moving parts to this jihadi attack.
Here’s a link to your post quotes, in case anyone wants to read the entire article.
“Two Russian speaking men in their early 20s later arrived at the apartment and told reporters they were journalists from the Boston Globe. They then entered the apartment through an unlocked patio door.
When asked what they were doing they said: We are friends of theirs. They are talking, they are talking and closed the door.
When MailOnline rang the City desk of the Boston Globe, a man said: Were very busy right now. Consider us informed. Thats weird, to say the least. Lets hope the authorities are following up on it. “
I don’t do Facebook or would be glad to help.
Have you seen this yet? Pretty interesting

Thanks, off to catch some rest. I am optimistic we may be close to seeing some results. More prayers and work tomorrow .
Isn’t Kazakstan on the west side of the Caspian Sea? Muslim.
