Azerbaijan to try group of alleged Wahhabi militants
Azerbaijan's Serious Crime Court had a preparatory session on Tuesday for a trial of 21 alleged followers of Wahhabism, an ultra-puritanical trend in Islam, who are accused of forming an illegal armed group, a court spokesman said. "According to the indictment, the illegal group was set up in March 2001 by Rovshan Badalov, who is nicknamed Amir. He had been enrolling activists in Georgia, where he met a future member of the group, Vyusal Isayev," the spokesman told Interfax.Posted by: TS(vice girl) 2004-09-07 |
