In Moscow, police detained a 21-year-old man suspected of recruiting new members to the Islamic State terrorist organization banned in Russia and raping a 14-year-old schoolgirl.
It is reported by REN TV.
According to investigators, Behruz M. met a minor on Instagram a year ago and began to correspond with her. The young man had conversations with the girl on religious topics, reinforcing them with videos and photographs of a radical persuasion. During the correspondence, the suspect formed a schoolgirl’s dislike for other religions and fueled the desire to join a terrorist organization in order to fight the “infidels”.
Bekhruz came to Rostov-on-Don, where the girl lived, met her there and abused her. After the meeting, he continued to correspond with her. According to these reports, employees of the Main Directorate for Combating Extremism of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs found him.
