Tajik man jailed in Russia for terrorist propaganda
2015-11-12
[RFE/RL] A court in the northwestern Russian city of Arkhangelsk has sentenced a Tajik man to three years in prison on terrorist propaganda charges. The regional prosecutor's office said on November 11 that Shahboz Azimov was found guilty of inciting hatred, calling publicly for terrorism, and justifying terrorism via the Internet.

Investigators say that Azimov had posted on the Internet calls for Russian Muslims to wage jihad against infidels and to join Daesh militants. Police say they found booklets and electronic materials with text propagating religious extremism in Azimov's residence in Arkhangelsk.
