CONCLUSIONS

Trace amounts of ammonium nitrate and high explosives — TNT and RDX — were found in samples of dust, soil, and on the surfaces of adhesive tapes. In addition, particles of aluminum powder were found along with trace amounts of high explosives and ammonium nitrate on the surfaces of some objects (items 3.1, 4.1 – 4.5, 5.1).

It is not possible to determine the source of origin of the ammonium nitrate, as well as the aluminum powder, from the trace amounts, nor to unequivocally classify these detected substances as components of a composite explosive.

It is not possible to conduct a comparative study of the detected trace amounts of explosives, aluminum powder, and ammonium nitrate with the explosives found in Moscow at the addresses: 16 Borisovskie Prudy St., bldg. 2 and 70 Krasnodarskaya St., due to the lack of materials at the disposal of the experts regarding the specified cases, which are necessary for conducting comparative studies.

Among the presented objects, there are fragments of adhesive tape that correspond to adhesive tape for packaging purposes. Tapes of this type are typically used for gluing and packaging products made of paper, films, plastics, etc.
