Baku: A decision has been issued regarding an ISIS member, Abdulla Aliyev, who was planning a terrorist attack at a synagogue in Baku. A court hearing was held on the appeal against the verdict in the case of Aliyev, who is accused of attempting to commit terrorism in Azerbaijan. The decision was made in the trial held at the Baku Court of Appeal, chaired by Judge Ramin Garagurbanli. According to the decision, the appeal was not upheld, and the verdict of the lower court remained in force.

According to Azeri-Press News Agency, under the verdict of the Baku Court on Grave Crimes, Abdulla Aliyev was sentenced to 13 years in prison. He was charged under several articles of the Criminal Code of the Republic of Azerbaijan, including terrorism committed by a group of persons acting in prior conspiracy, terrorism using firearms or objects used as weapons, terrorism committed on the grounds of religious enmity, religious radicalism, or religious fanaticism, and participation in a criminal association.

Aliyev was apprehended in the act thanks to the professionalism of the State Security Service while planning an attack on a Jewish synagogue using a Molotov cocktail. It should be recalled that 18-year-old Abdulla Aliyev, a resident of Sumgayit with ties to the terrorist organization 'ISIS-Khorasan,' was preparing to carry out a large-scale terrorist attack against the 'Baku Mountain Jews Synagogue' located in central Baku.
