List of imprisoned "extremists"

The Vedomosti newspaper published on March 16, 2012 an article by A. Verkhovsky "How distinguish a prisoner of conscience from an extremist .

The article was published in abbreviation. In particular, it did not include actually a list of those who are currently deprived of liberty under the articles of the Criminal Code, which can be conditionally considered "political".

We present this list.

List of imprisoned "extremists"

As indicated in the article in Vedomosti, in practice, the main such articles UK are:

• 214, part 2 (Hate-motivated vandalism),

• 244, part 2, paragraph “b” (Desecration of the bodies of the dead and their burial places motivated by hatred),

• 280 (Public calls for the implementation of extremist activity),

• 282 (Inciting hatred or enmity, as well as humiliation human dignity)

• 282-1 (Organization of an extremist community),

• 282-2 (Organization of activities of an extremist organization).

Other articles such as Art. 205-2 (Public calls for carrying out terrorist activities or publicly justifying terrorism), part 3 art. 212 (Calls for mass riots or participation in them, as well as calls for violence against citizens), Article 278 (Forcible seizure of power) are used extremely rarely. Although, in relation to Article 205-2, we can do something to miss, as we do not monitor anti-terrorist activities in republics of the North Caucasus.

For this article sit only far-right, condemned by groups for violent crimes, as well as two people from the Northern Brotherhood group, which was actively engaged in inciting to violence, also convicted of fraud.

Art. 282-2

Although many National Bolsheviks were previously convicted under this article, now none of them, convicted precisely under the listed articles, is in custody.

Everyone who sits under Art. 282-2 of the Criminal Code, are people convicted of (alleged) participation in various Muslim organizations and movements. We have there are no complete data on this category of prisoners (Elena Ryabinina, Institute of Human Rights, which deals specifically with this category of citizens).

Only recently began criminal cases against the followers of the Turkish Sufi Said Nursi, so that these convicts, apparently, are known to everyone. Departure punishment so far, maximum, three, namely, a group in Nizhny Novgorod. 10/11/2011 Gasanov E.S. sentenced to 1 year colony settlements, Safarov A.V. and Khayarov R.F. - 8 months in a colony-settlement every.

The largest number of convicts under Article 282-2 of the Criminal Code are those who was convicted for membership in the radical Islamist party Hizb ut-Tahrir al-Islami", groundlessly banned as terrorist. Now in conclusion on charges only under Article 282-2 are:

• group of Ildar Ibragimov, Ufa. Of these, 4 people sentenced on February 14, 2012 to 16 months each;

• group of Ildar Shaikhutdinov, Kazan. 08/01/11 sentenced to terms from 1 to 2.5 years, three of them are still in prison;

• group in the city of Davlekanovo (Bashkortostan). 22.02.12 Zabir Gataullin and Alexander Streltsov were sentenced to 13 months in a colony-settlement;

• group in the city of Tuimazy (Bashkortostan). 11/22/11 alone a person was sentenced to 8 months, and two - to 6 months in a colony-settlement;

• Abdurahim Toshmatov, Moscow. 11/30/11 sentenced to 1 year settlement colonies.

It should also be noted Almaz Khasanov, Shavkat Akhmedov, Ilnar Zyalilov and Dias Rafikov, who were arrested in December 2006 and sentenced in Kazan on 20.10.2009 to 8, 8 and 6 years in prison, respectively. In addition to Art. 282-2, they have Art. 205-1 (Assistance terrorist activities), art.150 (Involvement of minors) and even attempt under Article 278 (Forcible Seizure of Power), but all these charges are based only on the very fact of the operation of the Hizb ut-Tahrir cell, and not on some other activity.

Thus, for propaganda of one kind or another, under articles 280 and 282 of the Criminal Code, not aggravated by general criminal charges, 12 people are in prison; behind cemetery vandalism motivated by hatred - one person; for membership in different Muslim groups, according to Article 282-2 of the Criminal Code, also, in essence, nothing aggravated, another 20 people. Total - 33 people.
