General Info:
Abdurasul Hasanovich Juraboev is a citizen of Uzbekistan and resident of New York, who was sentenced to 15 years in prison for conspiring to provide material support to the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS).
He had a clear desire to wage violence on behalf of the Islamic State, and was determined to do so, whether on U.S. soil or abroad.
Juraboev posted comments on an Islamic State website in August 2014 about his desire to be a martyr and his willingness to kill the U.S. ex-President Barack Obama or planting a bomb on Coney Island.
He and his co-conspirators continued to ramp up their allegiance to the terrorist group by discussing travel to Syria and proposals to wage violent jihad here in the United States.
Juraboev ultimately purchased a plane ticket to travel to Syria, an act in furtherance of his terrorist plans and intentions. He was stopped at JFK International Airport before his plans came to fruition.
