FSB Detains Member of Terrorist Organization in Tatarstan
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.[Regnum] Officers of the Federal Security Service (FSB) of Russia detained a woman in Tatarstan on suspicion of participating in an international terrorist organization banned in Russia. This was reported on June 27 by the FSB Public Relations Center (PRC).  “It was established that illegal propaganda meetings were held at the address where the detainee lived, the main purpose of which was to spread the ideas of radical Islam among the republic’s Muslims, as well as to promote the principles of a terrorist organization,” the Center for Public Opinion said in a statement. FSB officers found out that at the meetings, participants studied banned extremist literature. In addition, members of the organization accepted reports on the work done to recruit new members, and also carried out the recruitment itself. In Moscow in May, a man who had recently received Russian citizenship was arrested for attempting to join the ranks of the Islamic State (IS, a terrorist organization banned in Russia). The investigation petitioned for the arrest of the suspect, since while at large, the man could maintain and coordinate communications with other IS members. He was sent to a pretrial detention center. Posted by: badanov 2025-06-28 |
