The introverted siamese twin of Al Qaeda is also in our archives as At-Takfir Val-Hijra.
Six residents of Karachevo-Cherksiya were arrested in connection with the case of involvement in the At Takfir wal-Hijra organization, the human rights project OVD-Info** reported today.

As follows from the message of the joint press service of the courts of Karachay-Cherkessia, the decision was made by the Cherkessk City Court.

Six residents of the republic are suspected of organizing and participating in the activities of a recognized extremist organization (parts 1 and 2 of Article 282.2 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation), the report dated May 28 notes.

The organization "At-Takfir wal-Hijra" (accusation of unbelief and hijra) appeared in Egypt and spread in the North Caucasus, especially in Kabardino-Balkaria in 1997-1998. Supporters of the organization belong to the Salafi movement in Islam and are distinguished by strict demands on fellow believers, says the Caucasian Knot material “Kabardino-Balkaria: On the Road to Catastrophe. Preconditions for the armed uprising in Nalchik on October 13-14, 2005.”
