Bulat Zhakpbaevich Satkangulov, an ISIS supporter, was charged with propagating terrorism, public incitement of terrorist activities, and the creation and storage of materials with the purpose of dissemination for the above listed purposes. In general, the court found that justification or arguments in support of terrorist activities equated the dissemination of terrorism propaganda. In February 2015, he contacted several of his friends after learning that they were critical of ISIS and Al-Baghdadi. Over a period of a few weeks, Satkangulov attempted to change his friends’ opinions on ISIS. They had several arguments over WhatsApp and the phone on the topic. During the conversations, he never directly urged his friends to join ISIS nor incited violence. The Prosecutor General charged Satkangulov with propaganda of terrorism using mass communication platforms. Satkangulov denied the charges. An expert commission qualified his statements to be propaganda of terrorism. On this basis, the court sentenced him to six years in prison and ordered all property under his name to be forfeited.
