Claim: Tajikistan terrorism is very low and the HIzb ut-Tahrir hardly cause any problems in the area.
Evidence: However, dissident Islamist militants led by Tohir Yo'ldosh and Juma Namangani formed the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan in 1998, allying with Al-Qaeda and vowing to unite Central Asia as an Islamic state. The Tajik government arrested 99 members of Hizb ut-Tahrir in 2005, sixteen of whom were women, and 58 members in 2006. Out of the 92 extremist suspects detained in 2006, 63% were suspected of membership in Hizb ut-Tahrir. Hizb ut-Tahrir activity is primarily in northern Tajikistan near the Fergana Valley.
