一名聯邦法官判處穆罕默德·阿扎魯丁·奇普（Azharuddin Chhipa）判處30年零4個月監禁。司法部於5月9日透露，Chhipa轉移了185,000美元

A federal judge has sentenced Mohammed Azharuddin Chhipa to 30 years and four months in prison for transferring over $185,000 in cryptocurrency to Islamic State (ISIS) handlers, the Department of Justice announced on Monday, May 9.

司法部於5月9日星期一宣布，一名聯邦法官因將超過185,000美元的加密貨幣轉移到伊斯蘭國（ISIS）處理人員而被判處穆罕默德·阿扎魯丁·奇普（Azharuddin Chhipa）判處30年零四個月的監禁。

Chhipa, 35, of Springfield, operated the network from October 2019 through October 2022. The money he collected was wired online and in person, then converted into crypto and forwarded to handlers in Turkey.

現年35歲的斯普林菲爾德（Springfield）的Chhipa從2019年10月到2022年10月運營了該網絡。他收集的錢是在線連接的，然後親自轉換為加密貨幣，並轉發給土耳其的處理人員。

The sentence comes after Chhipa was convicted by a jury in December 2024 on one count of conspiracy and four charges of providing material support to a listed terrorist organization.

該判決是在2024年12月因一項陰謀罪和四項為列出的恐怖組織提供物質支持的指控而被陪審團定罪之後。

According to the DOJ, Chhipa's actions involved collecting funds from various donors, converting them into cryptocurrency, and transferring the crypto to ISIS handlers.

根據司法部的說法，Chhipa的行動涉及從各種捐助者那裡收取資金，將其轉換為加密貨幣，並將加密貨幣轉移到ISIS處理人員。

The sentence also includes an order for Chhipa to pay restitution to the victims of the offenses.

該判決還包括一項命令，命令將罪行歸還給犯罪的受害者。

During the sentencing hearing, Judge Payne highlighted the serious nature of Chhipa's crimes, stating that he "knowingly and intentionally" provided material support to ISIS, a designated terrorist organization.

在判決聽證會上，佩恩法官強調了奇卡罪的嚴重性質，並指出他“故意和故意”為指定的恐怖組織ISIS提供了重大支持。

The judge emphasized that ISIS is a violent group responsible for beheadings, bombings, and other atrocities, and that any support for such an organization carries significant weight.

法官強調，ISIS是負責斬首，轟炸和其他暴行的暴力團體，對這種組織的任何支持都具有很大的影響力。

"This sentence reflects the critical role that all members of society can play in combating terrorism," said U.S. Attorney Harrison. "Those who choose to support designated terrorist organizations will be held accountable for their actions."

美國檢察官哈里森說：“這句話反映了所有社會成員在打擊恐怖主義方面都可以發揮的關鍵作用。” “那些選擇支持指定恐怖組織的人將對他們的行為負責。”

The investigation was conducted by the FBI's Springfield office, and the case was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Matthew M. Prince and Mark A.H. Messina.

調查是由聯邦調查局的斯普林菲爾德辦公室進行的，該案由美國助理律師馬修·M·普林斯和馬克·阿·墨西拿起起訴。
