According to investigators, the man, earlier convicted for organizing an illegal armed formation (IAF), or participation therein, from March to October 2015 in Saratov "exerted psychological pressure on a resident of the Saratov Region in order to involve him in IAF 'Imarat Kavkaz Vilayat Dagestan' active in Northern Caucasus region," says the press service of the Prosecutor's Office of the Saratov Region.
