## Transcript

He involved in any sort of training? I, I don't know. I don't know, I just, again I don't know. I seen them as a kids and if I, even slightly be aware that they were involved in, I be the first one to bring them into, responsibility. [ CROSSTALK ] in Chechnya? Huh? Were they caught up in the fighting in Chechnya? No they've never been in Chechnya. It has nothing to do with Chechnya. Chechens are different. Chechens are peaceful people. Where they born over there in Chechnya? No they were not born in there. Where were they born? One of them, Dzhokhar. He was born in Kyrgyzstan. That's a neighboring region to Chechnya.

Kyrgyzstan. [ SOUND ] [ CROSSTALK ] Have you seen the news? I haven't seen them for years. So when you saw the pictures on the news did you recognize them? I saw them only this morning when I was contacted from 7 a. m. with reporters. [ CROSSTALK ] When you saw their pictures on the news last night did you recognize them? Yes, the pictures, when they said have you seen the pictures, my wife opened up Internet. What did you, what did you? [ CROSSTALK ] And on AOL, on AOL I saw picture of Dzhokhar. What would you say to Dzhokhar right now if he is still alive? I say Dzhokhar, if you're alive, turn yourself in and ask for forgiveness from the victims, from the injured.

And from those who lived, ask forgiveness from these people. Why not require forgiveness in this family? He put a shame, he put a shame on the Tsarnaev and our family, Tsarnaev's family. He put a shame on the entire Chechen ethnicity. [ NOISE ] Cuz everyone now names, they play with word Chechen, so they put that shame on the entire ethnicity. So that's what I would say. Turn yourself in. And whatever, whatever want, I mean, put yourself at the discretion of those who're here. That's what I would say [ CROSSTALK ]. Do you consider them? Have you talked to the boys father? Pardon me? Have you been in touch with the boys father?

Not yet. Not yet.
