Ingushetia resident accused of justifying terrorism
Employees of the Ingush FSB department opened a case against a resident of the village of Nesterovskoye, considering his comments on Telegram to be a justification of terrorism.
The accused is 25 years old, he is charged with public justification of terrorism via the Internet (part 2 of article 205.2 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation provides for from five to seven years of imprisonment).
The reason for the criminal case against the resident of the Sunzhensky district was his comment in a public Telegram group, left in January 2023.
The comment, which the young man left under one of the group's publications, mentioned a certain "member of an international terrorist organization" convicted by the Southern District Military Court for a number of terrorist crimes, according to a message from the official Telegram channel of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ingushetia.
The department did not specify who exactly was mentioned in the comment. The FSB's expert unit found "linguistic and psychological signs of justification of terrorism" in the comment.
According to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the accused is under a written undertaking not to leave the country. "Kavkazsky Uzel" does not yet have comments from the accused or her representatives regarding the security forces' version.
"Kavkazsky Uzel" also wrote that a 20-year-old resident of Sochi, whose post on social networks the security forces considered a justification for the terrorist attack in "Crocus City Hall", was charged under a similar article.
