The second suspect is said to be his brother.

There is a page at the Russian social network VKontakte (In Contact) with the name Dzhokhar Tsarnaev living in Boston and studying at Cambridge Rindge & Latin School. He attended high school in Makhachkala, capital of Dagestan.

He had listed his priorities as "career and money" on social networking site.
