Sentence against Aleksandra Ivanova (Varvara Karaulova) announced
In particular, correspondence Ivanova (Karaulova) with an ISIL recruiter was tracked. The judge read some excerpts from this correspondence, indicating that Karaulova not only realized that ISIL is a terrorist organization, but also made every effort to become a member of this group.
The judge said that in his correspondence with the recruiter Karaulov praised the radical Islamist groups and was outraged by the “hypocrisy of Russian President Vladimir Putin.” The judge of the Moscow District Court announced that Karaulov had converted to Islam, had taken an Islamic name for herself, informing the ISIL recruiter that it was difficult for her to pray in Russia.
Karaulov in correspondence:
Karaulov in correspondence declares the inevitability of the arrival of the time when "the warriors of Islam will occupy Paris."
During the announcement of the charges, the judge reported that Karaulov (Ivanova), after returning from Turkey to Russia, had repeatedly contacted igilovtsami, reporting that she was very worried about the fact that she could not join the ranks of the group and move to Syria. For several weeks, Karaulov (Ivanova), in her correspondence, stated that she was ready to make a new attempt to leave for Syria. The recruiter offered her several options, including transit through Georgia and Azerbaijan. It was also proposed to purchase a fake passport of a citizen of Tajikistan.
Karaulova told the recruiter more than once that “she is ready to fight, although she never kept weapon in hand".
Karaulov:
The judge added that Ivanova is not a psychologically inspired person and at the time of committing the crime she was not in the heat of passion.
Recall that the public prosecutor asks the court to appoint for Ivanova punishment in the form of 5 years in prison. The lawyer asks the court to fully justify Ivanov.
Video broadcast from the courtroom leads television channel Russia Today.
Final verdict: 4,5, the colony of general regime.
