[KavkazUzel] The case of three residents of Dagestan, accused of involvement in the "Islamic State" and incitement to terrorism, has been submitted to the court. According to investigators, in 2018-2021, the suspects participated in the activities of the Islamic State and created a terrorist community using their pages on the social network and messenger. They posted videos containing public calls for terrorist activities and justifying terrorism, the investigative department of the Investigative Committee for Dagestan reported. Residents of the republic are accused of participating in the activities of a terrorist organization, creating a terrorist community and publicly calling for terrorist activities (part 2 of article 205.5, part 1 of article 205.4, part 2 of article 205.2 of the Criminal Code of Russia). The criminal case has been sent to court, according to a message published today on the ministry's telegram channel. The "Caucasian Knot" has previously written about other cases of prosecution under terrorist articles in Dagestan and other regions of the North Caucasus Federal District. In March, a native of the Nogai district of Dagestan, Adilkhan Amambaev, who was sentenced to nine years in prison for inciting an acquaintance to join the international terrorist organization ISIS*, appealed  the verdict at the cassation, alleging torture by the security forces and falsification of the materials of the criminal case. Also in March, the Court of Appeal returned the case of Daud Mamilov, a native of Ingushetia, found guilty of involvement in the activities of the Islamic State * and sentenced to eight years, to eliminate violations to the court of first instance, since the defendants were not familiarized with the protocol of the court session. In December 2022, the court sentenced  Bulat Gamzatov, a native of Makhachkala, to 15.5 years in prison, recognizing him as the organizer of a cell of a terrorist organization whose members planned attacks on security forces in Stavropol. |
