Investigators on Thursday detained a suspect from a deadly September explosion at a Vladikavkaz market who was preparing another bombing, the Investigative Committee said.
The suspect, identified as Yusup Dzangiyev, was detained in Ingushetia.
Investigators have identified seven other people suspected of involvement in the Sept. 9 suicide bombing that killed 19 people and left more than 200 injured.
Three suspects, Ali Daurbekov, Magomed Latyrov and Islam Khashagulgov, were detained earlier this fall.
The other four suspects were identified as Vakha Khashagulgov, Khizar Daurbekov, Umar Dzaurov and Ibragim Daurbekov.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
