Explanation:
Reason is through context stated the reference 'closely' was used within how the media covered the aftermath event. depicting perhaps that the brothers were from a normal non violent family as their background was covered in detail within news perhaps more due to their young age and malicious behavior more than the outlandish link. Where it was reported the eldest brother became radicalized and where he was away from place of birth Kyrgyzstan and younger childhood Russia. The potential that being away from home both intensifies mental health decline in contrast to displaced people rising world wide. this would be an easy calculation to jump to assumption, as personal violent attacks away from home as a rule have always occurred, the difference is threats have changed and media is linked to such change that could be associated with how threatening the world is perceived by radicalization and a radicalized audience no matter how imbalanced they appear the balance of feeling welcomed or finding tools to integrate may outweigh this if spending too much time allowing oneself to be radicalized in the first place. The truth is both brothers were exposed to the history of the riots in Kyrgyzstan in modern times 1992 and these changes of aggression being centralized as a nation in regression against the corruption believed at that time. This seems to Juxtapose a memory of violence by being born into this as any researcher can see the offender being the eldest brother 26 in 2013 was only 5 years of age during the time of the riots, and his brother was born into such chaos regardless on whether they were in the country as riots developed. They both were born into a chaotic environment that caused displacement for many in 1992. Contrasted with news of suffering in 2010 to 2013 that 400,000 of people within their homeland country had become displaced all whilst USA or United Nations did not get involved or assist within powers. Such victims of their homeland were victims of torrential physical attack crimes prior and since being huddled in camps on the borders. Such awareness to populations being uprooted in Kyrgyzstan represents 1/12 of a country, this really is a sign of violent times.
