ROSTOV-ON-DON, Russia -- A court in Russia convicted and sentenced two Kyrgyz citizens of being involved in a terrorist organisation, Interfax reported Friday (October 26).
The North Caucasus District Military Court in Rostov-on-Don sentenced Akramjon Abdullayev and Nematjon Isroilov to 15 and 13 years, respectively, of imprisonment, according to the court's press office.
They were found guilty of supporting a terrorist organisation and of organising terrorist activities.
According to the investigation, the pair had been members of the banned Hizb ut-Tahrir since 2015 and had been spreading the group's ideology in Sevastopol.
As soon as Vova [Putin, Vova is a contraction of Vladimir] had failed to talk Mirziyoev into taking part in his reckless schemes in Afghanistan, Russian siloviki [law enforcement and security agencies] launched crackdown on Uzbeks. They detained 300 Uzbek migrant workers in Tula [a Russian city to the south of Moscow] and demonstrated their power to the world. It was a shame to see riot police armed to their teeth take defenseless workers, including women to the precincts down the streets of Tula. Having witnessed this, their loved ones and relatives as well as ordinary Uzbeks will remember Russian hospitality for good.
