21:41 GMT 24.03.2015 (Updated: 21:45 GMT 24.03.2015) Khairullozhon Matanov, a 23-year-old cab driver and friend to the Tsarnaev brothers, appeared in federal court Tuesday to plead guilty to the crime of lying to the FBI.

According to a deal with prosecutors, the charge carries a 30-month sentence minus time served. He will be sentenced in June.
Had Matanov gone to court, there is enough evidence to convict him for a possible 20-year sentence.
Matanov was originally charged with lying and deleting information from his computer.
