He was a sniper: in New York a native of Kazakhstan is being tried for cooperation with ISIS

A case has been filed in New York against a native of Kazakhstan, Rustam Maratovich Asainov, who is accused of “providing significant assistance” to the terrorist organization “Islamic State.”

According to an indictment document issued by the detective of the New York police and Kevin Martin, a member of the joint anti-terrorism task force, 42-year-old Asainov lived in Brooklyn from 1998 to 2013 and received US citizenship.

All that is known about the American period of his life is that on July 18, 2003, he declared bankruptcy. This number turned out to be fatal for him: on July 18 of this year, Asainov was taken under escort to New York from the Middle East, where some time ago he was captured by the Syrian Democratic Forces, which enjoy American support, and was handed over to the FBI.

The next day he was brought to the initial registration in the federal court of the Eastern District of New York in Brooklyn, where he was sentenced to life on Wednesday drug lord El Chapo.

Long term

If Asainov is found guilty, then so far he faces up to 20 years in prison. The prosecutor’s office, however, notes in court documents that additional charges may still be brought against him.

In December, 2017 of the year in the same court heard the verdict of a citizen of Kazakhstan Akhror Saydakhmetov. He was arrested two years before at Kennedy Airport with a one-way ticket to Istanbul. Saidakhmetov admitted to joining the IG.

He was sentenced to 15 years and, according to the US prison authorities, 17 will be released on June 2028, when deported to the homeland.

According to Detective Martin, December 24 2013, Asainov flew from New York’s Kennedy Airport to Istanbul Ataturk Airport and arrived in Turkey the next day. As repeatedly emphasized in court documents, Turkey is known as a transit point for those who want to get to Syria.

Asainov spent two days in an Istanbul hotel, and then moved to Syria, where, over time, he became one of the best ISI snipers and rose to the honorary title of Emir. According to investigators, he taught gunmen to use weapons and took part in the creation of training camps for an extremist organization.

He corresponded from Syria with one New York acquaintance whom he had known since 2008. He was a paid police informant. Now their correspondence will constitute the evidence base of the prosecution.

Once Asainov sent a text message to his correspondent, sticking a photo of three killed militants. One had a stripe with an Arabic inscription, exposing the identity of the deceased to the IG.

“We are dying here,” Asainov wrote. “These are young guys, friends who died in the last battle.”

"Planes of the Infidels"

In another message, Asainov explicitly threatens the envoy, and another text begins with the statement: “We are the most terrible terrorist organization that has ever existed in the world.” At the same time, the author reports that “infidel planes are circling above him,” and notes that he would like to die on the battlefield.

During the correspondence, which lasted from August 2014 of the year to March of 2015, Asainov tried to persuade the informant to join him in Syria, where the IG will take advantage of the fact that he is fluent in English and will use him in his media projects. Asainov promised that in Syria, the IG would provide his interlocutor with work, housing and food, would pay 50 dollars a month and agree on escort from Turkey to Syria.

He called on the informant to take his family with him to Syria, and in March 2015, Asainov asked the informant to send him about 2800 dollars to buy a sight. He did not send him money.

A month later, Asainov sent him photographs in which he was dressed in military uniform and armed with a large-caliber rifle with a sight.

In April 2015, the informant asked him if he was taking part in the battles. Asainov replied that he had been fighting for a whole year, and noted that recently the militants have been heavily accrued from air raids.

At the end of the week, the prosecutor's office asked the court not to release Asainova on bail. A permanent lawyer has not been assigned to him yet.
