Radio Free Europe: After Supermarket Blast, Putin Says Terror Suspects Should Be 'Liquidated'

Russian President Vladimir Putin has said a blast that injured at least 10 people at a St. Petersburg supermarket was a terrorist act, and urged security forces to "take no prisoners" when dealing with imminent threats from terror-plot suspects.

Talking tough on December 28, a day after the explosion of what authorities said was a makeshift bomb packed with metal fragments, Putin said law enforcement officers should "liquidate" suspected terrorists if they pose a potentially deadly threat.

"You know that a terrorist act was carried out in St. Petersburg yesterday," Putin said at a medals ceremony in the Kremlin for military personnel who have taken part in Russian operations in Syria.
