  From NPR News in Washington, I'm Lakshmi Singh.
 
  Law enforcement officials tell NPR that the mystery man known as Misha who was tied to the Boston Marathon bombing suspects is not believed to have played a part in the attacks. But as NPR's Dina Temple-Raston explains officials are investigating as many as a dozen people.
 
  Officials say they have spoken with the man known as Misha while he knew Tamerlan Tsarnaev, one of the bombing suspects. He doesn't appear to have radicalised Tamerlan Tsarnaev. They said that Misha had not had contacted the Tsarnaev for years and he is cooperating completely with the investigation1. Officials say that the inquiry2 is broadening. Investigators3 are looking at a dozen people they think have helped the Tsarnaev brothers either before or after the bombings. Among them, two students from Kazakhstan who were arrested in New Bedford soon after the attacks. They are now being held on immigration violations4. Dina Temple-Raston, NPR News.
 
  The administration is declining the comment on a report alleging5 that Afghanistan received tens of millions of dollars in secret CIA payments during the last ten years. Afghan President Hamid Karzai is confirming his government received payments for medical housing and other needs though he wouldn't say how much.

  The head of the United Nations Ban Ki-moon is appealing to Syria to allow a team of experts to investigate the alleged9 use of chemical weapons. NPR's Michele Kelemen reports the secretary general met with the UN team in New York today.
 
  Ban Ki-moon says the team led by a Swedish chemical expert has been gathering10 and analysing available evidence, but he says the investigators need to go to Syria to establish the facts.
 
  A credible11 and comprehensive inquiry requires full access to the sites where chemical weapons are alleged to have been used.
 
  He says he takes seriously a U.S. intelligence report on limited chemical weapons used by Syria. The U.S. has also been calling on Syria to allow in UN investigators. Michele Kelemen, NPR News, Washington.
