[KavkazUzel] The court sentenced a resident of the Ingush village of Inarki to ten years in prison, finding him guilty of financing terrorist activities. The convicted resident of Ingushetia is 35 years old, in the past he had already been convicted under the article on illegal trafficking of explosives. The case is being heard by the Southern District Military Court in Rostov-on-Don. According to the prosecution, in March 2023, a resident of Inarka personally transferred money to a person wanted for terrorist crimes. This person acts in the interests of a terrorist organization banned in Russia, according to a publication on the official website of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation for Ingushetia. Investigators did not specify how much money the accused transferred to the alleged militants and under what conditions. According to the agency, this money "allowed the wanted persons to continue their terrorist activities" in Ingushetia. The accused, who was previously sentenced by the Malgobek City Court to three years and a fine of 20 thousand rubles in the explosives case, was taken into custody. The military court, when determining the punishment, took into account the previous sentence, sentencing the man to 10 years of imprisonment with the first two years to be served in prison, and the rest of the term - in a maximum security penal colony. The fine of 20 thousand rubles was also retained in the new sentence. The article on financing terrorist activity (part 1.1 of article 205.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation) provides for eight to 15 years of imprisonment. According to the case file of the Southern District Military Court, on June 25, a guilty verdict under this article was handed down to Islam Zagiyev, a 35-year-old native of Malgobek, whose data is included in the list of terrorists and extremists of Rosfinmonitoring. The Caucasian Knot does not yet have any comments from the accused or his lawyer regarding the verdict and plans to appeal.
