Edited.[KavkazUzel] The court sentenced residents of Stavropol Ansar Guseinov, Abdula and Miyasat Irkkuev, as well as Timur Bukharov to long prison terms, finding them guilty in the case of preparing a terrorist attack on behalf of the Islamic State. As the "Caucasian Knot" reported, on October 7, 2022, the FSB reported that members of a cell of the international terrorist organization "Islamic State"* (IS), who were planning a terrorist attack, were detained in Stavropol. One of the detainees admitted plans to commit a terrorist attack and join the militants of a terrorist organization. According to investigators, residents of Stavropol Ansar Guseinov, Abdula Irkkuev, Miyasat Irkkueva and Timur Bukharov joined the Islamic State on October 1, 2022. On October 3, 2022, they entered into a conspiracy with a member of the Islamic State to carry out a terrorist attack in Stavropol and acquired components for a homemade bomb. Later, Irkkuev made an explosive. The Southern District Military Court in Rostov-on-Don sentenced Bukharov and Guseinov each to 14 years of imprisonment in a maximum security colony, Irkkuev to 15 years of imprisonment in a maximum security colony, Miyasat Irkkueva to 6 years of imprisonment in a general regime colony, it was reported today " Interfax" with reference to the press service of the court. Depending on their role, they were accused of participating in a terrorist organization, preparing a terrorist attack, illegally manufacturing explosives, and illegally trafficking in explosives. It should be noted that in October 2022, the FSB reported three times on the discovery of terrorist cells in the Stavropol region, but this aroused analysts’ distrust. “Such messages may raise doubts, because this is a case when it is impossible to either confirm or refute incoming information,” Deputy Director of the Institute of Political and Military Analysis Alexander Khramchikhin told the “Caucasian Knot” correspondent. The intelligence services are motivated to spread doubtful reports about the detention of alleged terrorists in the Stavropol region to improve reporting and for propaganda purposes, journalist Elena Suslova and human rights activist Arsen Sarkisov told the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent.
