The St Petersburg metro explosion was caused by a bomb possibly detonated by a man whose body parts were found on the train, Russian investigators say.

The blast between two metro stations on Monday killed 14 people and injured 49.

Kyrgyzstan's security service named the suspect as Akbarzhon Jalilov, who was born in the Kyrgyz city of Osh in 1995 and had obtained Russian citizenship.

The reasons why Central Asians support violent Islamist groups are mainly rooted in social and economic insecurities. Religion may not be necessarily a major one.
