Bilol Kurbonaliyev, deported from Germany, was detained by the Tajik authorities.
On February 16, information was officially confirmed about the detention by the Tajik authorities of Bilol Kurbonaliev, an activist of Group 24.
During a press conference, an employee of the Prosecutor General’s Office confirmed that Bilol Kurbonaliev was detained and is currently in Dushanbe pre-trial detention center, a criminal case was opened against him on charges of organizing a criminal community.
To great regret, all our calls to the German authorities were ignored. And now a man who has only fought for freedom and democracy faces prolonged imprisonment and torture.
The German authorities are directly responsible for what happened. We very much hope that the German officials who made the erroneous decision will intervene in the fate of Bilol Kurbonaliev.
As we already wrote, despite the protests, the work of a lawyer, on December 8, 2023, the German authorities sent Bilol Kurbonaliev to Tajikistan.
It is not clear since when Tajikistan became a safe country for the political opposition, from the point of view of German officials? The next detention of a political activist immediately upon his return to the country shows and proves that nothing has changed in Tajikistan, that Rahmonov fundamentally suppresses any manifestation of free thought and does not leave him unpunished.
