“Over 700 Tajiks were fighting in Syria and Iraq alongside the ISIL militant group, 300 of them have been killed,” senior member of Tajikistan’s National Security Committee Bahreddin Mohammedov told a press conference in Dushanbe on Tuesday.
He said that criminal proceedings will not be instituted against them if they return to Tajikistan.
The ISIL Takfiri terrorists currently control a shrinking part of Syria and Iraq. They have threatened all communities, including Shiites, Sunnis, Kurds, Christians, Ezadi Kurds and others, as they continue their atrocities in Iraq.
Senior Iraqi officials have blamed Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and some Persian Gulf Arab states for the growing terrorism in their country.
The ISIL has links with Saudi intelligence and is believed to be indirectly supported by the Israeli regime.
