The board of the North Caucasus District Military Court (Rostov-on-Don), chaired by Vyacheslav Korsakova, sentenced Mukharem Orozbaev, the former chairman of the Kucherlinsky village council of the Turkmen district of Stavropol, by eight years of strict regime without a fine on charges of recruitment of Islamic State. It is reported by Interfax-South.

44-year-old Orozbaev was declared guilty under part 2 of Article 205.1 of the Criminal Code (assistance to terrorism using official position).

In the debate of the parties, the prosecutor requested a nine -year period with a fine of 600 thousand rubles for the defendant.

Orozbaev himself consistently denied the guilt .

Orozbaev was detained by the FSB on December 28, 2016 and sent to a pre -trial detention center. There were no preliminary hearings in his case; The trial on the merits continued on January 15. The process took about 25 meetings.

At the first meeting, the lawyer of the defendant Adam Abubakarov stated the defender for the appointment of Marina Leventen, imposed by the judicial collegium. However, the judges rejected the allotment.

According to the plot of the case, Orozbaev is an adherent of radical Islam. Using authority among local residents, the verdict said, he convinced Rahman Bagbekov, a young man from the aul Sharakhalsun in the village council - to go to Syria to fight on the side of the IG. According to in the case, on January 23, 2015, Orozbaev, through dummies, bought a ticket for the Egyptian resort of Hurghada for Bagbekov, and upon the arrival of the young man to Egypt several times transferred him money to a bank card. Money for the return road, the prosecution declares, Bagbekov was also transferred by Orozbaev through dummies.

On March 2, 2016, Bagbekov was detained at the airport immediately upon arrival in Russia. On October 25 of the same year, Skovs sentenced the young man to 15 years of strict regime. It was claimed that convicted in July-August 2015 studied a mine-explosive case at the jihadists camp in Homs.

Meanwhile, Bagbekov said that in Egypt he arrived to study the Arabic language in the Islamic center of Cairo and recruited him there a certain person, whom he met in a local mosque.

At the first hearings of the process, lawyer Abubakarov called the indictment "a set of words about nothing." In particular, he pointed out, Orozbaev adheres to traditional rather than radical Islam. Also, the lawyer added, in the case file there is no answer to the question of exactly where Bagbekov withdrew the money transferred by the chairman of the village council. "In which ATM they turned out - in the province of Homs, where he allegedly underwent preparation, or in Cairo, where he studied the Qur'an, which is not forbidden? Why is the investigation this is not disclosed, since it is known from which ATMs were sent funds?" - noted the lawyer.

Earlier, Judge Korsakov participated in the adoption of obviously unfinished sentences to Oleg Sentsov and Alexander Kolchenko , the defendants of the first Sevastopol case “Hizb Ut-Taurir” , citizens Ramzan Belyalov and Magomed Mazdaev , who were falsely accused of participating in the Chechen raid on Budennovsk in 1995.

Orozbaev headed the Kucherlin village council for about 15 years; He was elected three times to the post of chairman. At the VK page "Unity of Turkmens" the official was characterized as a "devoted Muslim", "closely cooperating with the Muslim community ... in the organization of everyday life."
