[KavkazUzel] The Southern District Military Court in Rostov-on-Don sentenced Nurmukhamed Tseev, a resident of Kabardino-Balkaria,
…so somewhere in the north Caucasus…
recognizing him as a member of the banned terrorist organization "Islamic State". 

The verdict of a resident of Kabardino-Balkaria, accused of involvement in a banned terrorist organization, was announced on February 28 by the court's press service.

According to the prosecution, Nurmukhamed Tseev “took part” in the activities of “IS” while in Baksan.

“In particular, Tseev recorded on his phone the text of the oath he pronounced about voluntarily joining a terrorist organization and sent it to members via a mobile application,” says a message published by the official Telegram channel of the court.

The message does not provide other examples of the “participation” of a resident of Kabardino-Balkaria in the activities of militants. It is also not specified whether the defendant pleaded guilty.

The court sentenced Tseeva to ten years and six months in a maximum security colony, with the first two years and six months to be served in prison. The "Caucasian Knot" does not yet have comments from lawyer Nurmukhamed Tseev regarding the verdict.

The article on participation in the activities of a terrorist organization, for which Tseev was convicted (Part 2 of Article 205.5 of the Criminal Code of Russia), provides for ten to twenty years in prison.

The "Caucasian Knot" also wrote that in early February, investigators suspected a resident of Kabardino-Balkaria of participation in ISIS*, who has been in custody since June 2023 on charges of threats against security forces and attempted murder.
