FBI appears to be playing for keeps.
Khusen Taramov, a friend of Todashev’s who is coordinating the return of his body to Russia and who washed his body in the traditional Islamic fashion, said Todashev’s body had multiple gunshot wounds, including one in the head and several near the heart.
Officials at the Orange County medical examiner’s office said they have completed an autopsy and ruled Todashev’s death a homicide and that the office released the body to Todashev’s wife. Officials said they will not release further information until the completion of the FBI investigation. http://www.boston.com/metrodesk/2013/05/29/islamic-group-calls-for-justice-department-probe-into-shooting-marathon-bombing-suspect-associate/ehHJmRdLDI8a1XM5mOeWKO/story.html
Muslim civil-rights group calls for DOJ investigation into Todashev shooting
ORLANDO, Fla. —
A group that represents Muslim-Americans held a press conference Wednesday to raise questions about the shooting death of Ibragim Todashev.
The Council on American-Islamic Relations is calling for an independent investigation by the Department of Justice to find out why the FBI shot and killed Todashev last Wednesday, claiming he was unarmed.
The shooting occurred on May 22 at the Windhover condominium complex near Kirkman Avenue and Vineland Road.
CAIR director Hassan Shibly said the shooting of Todashev was “excessive and unjust.”
“Ibragim was indeed unarmed when he was shot seven times — what appears to be once in the back of the head,” Shibly said.
Channel 9’s Ryan Hughes learned a friend of Todashev, Khusen Taramov, was in the townhome, but said he was asked to leave hours before Todashev was killed.
When he came back a couple of hours later, his friend was dead, Taramov said.
The FBI said an FBI agent and two Massachusetts state troopers were in Orlando to question Todashev about his involvement in a 2011 triple murder near Boston that allegedly involved bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarneav.
WFTV originally reported last Wednesday that Todashev lunged at the agent with a knife and the agent opened fire, but ABC News sources said Wednesday he wasn’t armed.
A medical examiner’s office spokesman said Tuesday his death was ruled a homicide but couldn’t say more because of the open investigation.
The FBI office in Tampa is working to obtain information on the shooting and the status of the investigation.
Last week, all the FBI would say on the record was Todashev became violent and that caused the agent to shoot him.
Todashev’s widow, Reni Manukyan, wiped away tears at Wednesday’s press conference. She said Todashev would never do what he is being accused of.
“I would never expect anything from him. Anything that’s being told about him — that he was down – — it would never get to my mind,” Manukyan said.
Manukyan said Todashev had no relationship with Tsarnaev.
“They were never friends. They know each other because they come from the same place: Chechyna,” Manukyan said.
Manukyan said Todashev wasn’t even in Massachusetts at the time of the murders.
The family is still making arrangements to fly the body to Chechnya where Todashev will be buried.
An FBI spokesman in Tampa late Wednesday told Channel 9’s Ryan Hughes that he’s trying to find out any new details with the investigation.

Deep Six Cover - Information Smugglers 
Where getting there people, the muddied waters are beginning to clear.
Here’s what we have so far. First he was armed with a knife and lunged at the police officer. Then he was unarmed. Next he is armed again but this time with a metal pipe. Then he’s unarmed again. As I write I believe he is armed again but this time with a table.
We started off with one FBI agent and two Massachusetts State police officers. This has changed to one FBI agent, two Massachusetts State police officers and ‘other law enforcement officials’. So at least five.
The number of shots fired still remains a bit of a mystery. We started off with one shot fired but this has now changed to at least seven with one into the back of the head.
Still no word on the audio/video of this lengthy interrogation which we were told was just about to get mighty exciting. He had begun or was about to write his ‘confession’.
Stop Press.
This just in. The five law enforcement officials in the room with Todashev has now been reduced to just one officer who promptly pumps seven rounds into the interviewee. Whether the other at least four law-enforcement officials left of their own accord or were asked to leave remains unclear. Stay tuned as we think Todashev might return from the dead at any minute.
