Bottom Line Up Front:
May 19, 2019, prison riot in Tajikistan, left 29 dead, including ISIS supporters
orchestrated by militants
Tajikistan seen jihadist violence over last few years
worrisome trend for future instability in the country.
2nd deadly prison riot in six months in Tajikistan
a year since ISIS terrorist attack in Danghara district killed four
Terrorism could spill over Tajikistan’s borders
political violence and instability plaguing Central Asia.
Tajikistan increasingly authoritarian in past decade
Among 29 dead 2 senior members from Islamic Renaissance Party of Tajikistan (IRPT)
outlawed since 2015, members frequently charged with terrorism
Tajikistan poorest countries in Central Asia
lack of socio-economic opportunities
weak rule of law.
Without opportunity for legitimate political opposition
increasingly solidified authoritarianism
istifled political and religious freedoms
result is fertile ground for extremists
Tajikistan produced hundreds of fighters joined IS in Iraq and Syria
growing presence of ISIS Khorasan Province in Afghanistan
growing foreign presence in Tajikistan,
threatens Tajik sovereignty and, Central Asian autonomy.
My solution : It is simple. Go to the source and destroy the source. You do not need guns and bombs. Who would like to assist?
