General Info:
Jamshid Muhtorov was deported to Uzbekistan as a refugee and permanent U.S. resident who was convicted of providing support to the Islamic Jihad Union terrorist organization.

Muhtorov and his family came to the United States in 2007 as political refugees after claiming to be prosecuted by the ruling regime of Uzbekistan.

In 2012, Muhtov was arrested at O’Hare Airport in Chicago while en route to Turkey. He was convicted following a 19-day trial in Denver in 2018.

Murhtov in 2013 became the first person notified by the Department of Justice (DOJ) that evidence was gathered against him using a warrantless wiretap.

He swore allegiance to the Islamic Jihadist Union and even “told his eight year old daughter to ‘pray for your Daddy to become a martyr….’ ”.

Muhtorov was initially sentenced to 11 years in prison followed by “15 years of supervised release” and transfer to Immigrations and Customs Enforcement custody for removal proceedings.
