Abstract. Minsky proved that two Kleinian groups G 1 and G 2 are quasiconformally conjugate if they are freely indecomposable, the injectivity radii at all points of H 3 /G 1 , H 3 /G 2 are bounded below by a positive constant, and there is a homeomorphism h from a topological core of H 3 /G 1 to that of H 3 /G 2 such that h and h −1 map ending laminations to ending laminations. We generalize this theorem to the case when G 1 and G 2 are topologically tame but may be freely decomposable under the same assumption on the injectivity radii. As an application, we prove that if a Kleinian group is topologically conjugate to another Kleinian group which is topologically tame and not a free group, and both Kleinian groups satisfy the assumption on the injectivity radii as above, then they are quasi-conformally conjugate.
