In this paper, we report the discovery and detailed radio/X-ray analysis of a peculiar giant radio galaxy (GRG) detected by INTEGRAL, IGR J14488–4008. The source has been recently classified as a Seyfert 1.2 galaxy at redshift 0.123; the radio data denote the source to be a type II Fanaroff–Riley radio galaxy, with a linear projected size exceeding 1.5 Mpc, clearly assigning IGR J14488–4008 to the...
