Avaz Shoyusupov
Died Template:Death date
Tashkent
Nationality Kazakhstan
Known for Blew himself up, injuring five bystanders, in a Tashkent courthouse

Avaz Shoyusupov (d. Template:Death date) was a citizen of Kazakhstan who is reported to have blown himself up in the lobby of the Prosecutor's Office in Tashkent, Uzbekistan as part of a terrorist action.[1][2][3] Five individuals were injured in his July 30 2004 suicide bombing.[4] Two other citizens of Kazakstan exploded suicide bombs in Tashkent that day: Dulat Iskakov, outside the U.S. Embassy; and Mavlon Valiev, outside the Israeli Embassy.[5]

Security officials from Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan make different assertions of which group was responsible for his attack, and other bombings that year.[1] Uzbek security officials asserted the bombings were the work of the Hizb ut-Tahrir (HT) while Kazakh security officals attributed the bombings to the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan (IMU).

The Uzbekistan Prosecution office was then prosecuting Furkat Yusupov and 14 other individuals apprehended following terrorist bombings in late March 2004 at the time Shoyusupov set off his bomb in the Prosecution's office.[4] Those trials were subsequently delayed several weeks, and concluded on August 24 2004.

Shoyusupov was also apprehended following the March 2004 attacks, but was set free.[4]
