The ban on the activities of the Taliban movement has been suspended following a lawsuit filed by the Russian Prosecutor General
  Text

Today, the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation granted the claim of the Prosecutor General of the Russian Federation Igor Krasnov and suspended the ban on the activities of the Taliban Movement, previously included in the list of terrorist organizations.

The legal basis for the appeal to the court was the amendments made in December last year to the Code of Administrative Procedure of the Russian Federation and the Federal Law "On Combating Terrorism". They allow the suspension of the ban on a terrorist organization in the event of the cessation of activities aimed at promoting, justifying and supporting terrorism or committing terrorist crimes against the interests of Russia.

Taking into account the data of the competent authorities, the said circumstances were confirmed in the court hearing, upon which the court came to the conclusion that the claim filed by the Prosecutor General of Russia was justified.

The decision is to be implemented immediately.
