The United Arab Emirates publishes the names and photos of the three suspects in the murder of Rabbi Zvi Kogan.

All three men are Uzbeki, according to the UAE Interior Ministry — Olimpi Toirovich, 28; Makhmudjon Abdurakhim, 28; and Azizbek Kamlovich, 33.

The UAE goes out of its way to stress “the determination of the competent security authorities to quickly take the necessary measures to uncover the details of the incident, its circumstances and motives, and to harness their human and professional capabilities, expertise and technical capabilities that led to the arrest of the perpetrators.”
