MOSCOW. Sept 2 (Interfax-AVN) - The female suicide bomber who blew herself up near the Rizhskaya metro station in Moscow on Tuesday evening has not yet been identified, Deputy Moscow Prosecutor Vladimir Yudin told Interfax on Thursday.

"The work on reconstructing the terrorist's head is going on. The best specialists have been engaged in making a composite image of the suicide bomber," he said.

Commenting on media reports claiming that the bombing near Rizhskaya was committed by a sister of Amanta Nagayeva, whom the media have described as the prime suspect in downing one of the two Russian airliners last week, Yudin said, "The investigation materials do not contain such information so far."

The identification of all those killed in the Tuesday bombing should be completed on Thursday, Yudin said. Six victims have so far been identified.

The bombing near Rizhskaya killed a total of nine people, including the perpetrator, he said.
