The former head of the youth wing of the IRPT in the Kulyab region, Muhammadali Islamov, was detained by law enforcement agencies in 2015 and was sentenced to seven years in prison on charges of membership in a banned movement in Tajikistan.

Two years ago, under the amnesty law, his prison term was reduced by one year. He was released after 6 years of imprisonment.

38-year-old Muhammadali Islamov is a master of Islamic philosophy, a graduate of one of the Iranian universities.

The Civil Committee for the Protection of Political Hostages and Prisoners in Tajikistan, located in Warsaw, congratulated the political prisoner on his release and expressed hope that all political prisoners in the country would be released from prisons as soon as possible.
