[KavkazUzel] A court in Makhachkala gave a local resident a two-year suspended sentence, finding him guilty of participating in a religious extremist organization, the Dagestan FSB reported.
| Here’s hoping they can keep track of him going forward, against his next big adventure. |
The court and the investigation established that the native of Makhachkala was a member of a cell of the At-Takfir Val-Hijra religious extremist organization banned by the court in Dagestan, took part in the meetings of its adherents and called for the overthrow of the constitutional order in Russia.
The At Takfir wal Hijra movement has existed since 1971. Its leader was the Upper Egyptian agronomist Shukri Mustafa (1942-1978).
| Originally Muslim Brotherhood, he joined Sayyid Qutb in splitting off to pursue violent jihad. After Shukri Mustafa was executed, the group split again, the more moderate faction following Ayman Al-Zawahiri, who subsequently became Al Qaeda’s second in command. Takfir wal Hijra has cells all over the place — Ukraine reported arresting three Crimean turbans in 2009, and a larger cell was tied up in Moscow in 2013. |
The creators of the movement came to the conclusion that the Egyptian society no longer corresponds to Islam, so in 1973 the Takfirists left for the sparsely populated foothill regions of Egypt.
In 1976, the size of the group (they called themselves Jamaat al-muslimin - "community of Muslims", considering the rest infidels) was several thousand people. In 1977, members of the movement took hostage the former Minister for Religious Affairs of the Egyptian government, Muhammad al-Dhahabi. Shukri Mustafa was arrested in 1977 and executed in 1978, RIA Novosti informs. The activity of the international religious association "At Takfir wal-Hijra" (Atonement and Exodus) is prohibited in Russia decision of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation of September 15, 2010.
The Leninsky District Court of Makhachkala found him guilty of participating in a religious extremist organization (Part 2 of Article 282.2 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation), RIA "Dagestan" cited a message from the press service of the FSB for the republic today.
"The court sentenced him to a two-year suspended sentence with a one-year probationary period," the agency said.
Note that the maximum penalty under this article is six years in prison.
The verdict has already entered into force, the report says.
The "Caucasian Knot" does not yet have any comments from the local resident or his representatives regarding the decision of the court.
