"Two tourists with severe stab wounds are still undergoing treatment in a Dushanbe hospital," the source said.
At the same time, a representative of Tajikistan's Interior Ministry told Sputnik that the bodies of the four killed tourists had been transferred to the local embassies of their countries.
"The bodies of the four foreign cyclists – two US citizens, one Dutch and one Swiss national – have been transferred to the authorities of their countries. The embassies of their countries in Tajikistan will send the bodies to their homeland," the source said.
The US, Dutch and Swiss Embassies in Tajikistan refused to comment on the matter.
The responsibility for the attack was claimed by the Daesh* terrorist group. Meanwhile, Tajikistan's Interior Ministry blamed the Islamic Renaissance Party of Tajikistan, banned in the country, for the attack.
