Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan
Islamic terrorists set off a car bomb outside of the Emergencies Ministry killing two people on 31 December 2005. Sharipov said, "We do not have any theories... We don't know what caused the blast."
On 17 April 2006 Sharipov announced that the Tajik Government had arrested four members of the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan and were searching for two more IMU members responsible for the 2005 terrorist bombings in Dushanbe. Sharipov announced on 17 July that the government had arrested ten more IMU members in Khujand, three of whom are citizens of Uzbekistan, on 14-15 July. He said, "As far as we know the movement members who are being detained in Tajikistan are trained in Afghanistan and sent to Uzbekistan where they cross the border to Tajiksitan, often illegally. The detained Uzbek nationals are wanted in their country for attempting or committing terrorist acts."

Famous quotes containing the word movement:
“Reporters for tabloid newspapers beat a path to the park entrance each summer when the national convention of nudists is held, but the cult’s requirement that visitors disrobe is an obstacle to complete coverage of nudist news. Local residents interested in the nudist movement but as yet unwilling to affiliate make observations from rowboats in Great Egg Harbor River.”
