28 March 2019

Judicial proceedings against militants of the "Islamic State" international terrorist group should be conducted in accordance with national law.

 

This was announced today at a briefing by the official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia Maria Zakharova.

 

"Judicial proceedings over ISIL (banned in the Russian Federation) should, firstly, use national legal instruments, secondly, involve, inter alia, international anti-terrorism regulations or regulatory framework. At this stage, the primacy of national legislation should be in force in those countries that detain terrorists and should bring them to justice on the basis of an appropriate evidence base", she noted, in particular.
