The father of the Chechen man killed during an FBI interview at his home in Florida is suing the bureau for the wrongful death of his 27-year-old son, Time reports.
Abdulbaki Todashev, who lives in Chechnya, arrived in Tampa Monday to begin filing the suit with the help of the ACLU.
Todashev’s son, Ibragim, was killed while being interrogated by the FBI on May 22.
The son was being interrogated about his ties to one of the Boston Marathon bombing suspect when he was killed.
The FBI has refused to say what happened.
“He was shot seven times,” his father told Time. “In the heart and in the head. What is that if not murder?”
