Amiraslan Alikhan oglu Isgandarov (Azerbaijani: Əmiraslan Əlixan oğlu İsgəndərov; born 1976^[1]^[2]) was the alleged head of a Salafist group in Baku, Azerbaijan.^[3]^[4]

From 1999 to 2003, he attended Afghan training camps, and ostensibly studied how to focus on recruiting young female mujahideen.^[3] TNT, grenades and detonators were seized during the arrest.^[5]
