The arrest of 87-year-old Daniyar Nabiev is a flagrant violation of the law and a shameful act

87-year-old Daniyar Nabiev sentenced to five years in a political case.

Daniyar Nabiev, a resident of the Rudaki district, was detained by law enforcement agencies in September 2020 on charges of helping and sympathizing with political prisoners. Since September, he has been arrested and detained in a pre-trial detention center in Dushanbe, where he was subjected to torture and severe psychological pressure. At the end of December, he was sentenced to five years in prison.

Daniyar Nabiyev lived his own life. His fault was only that he sympathized with his friends political prisoners, supported them morally and brought food.

Unfortunately, this is not the first time that older persons in Tajikistan have been persecuted and tortured.This blatant case once again proves that there is nothing left for our authorities that Rakhmonov(President of Republic of Tajikistan since 1994) thinks only about how to maintain power and enrich himself. He has long forgotten about eternal values and humanity, forgot about the Day of Judgment. Old age has been revered in our culture and religion for centuries.

The authoritarian and criminal regime of Rakhmonov, who has always ruthlessly dealt with political opponents, apparently today feels its imminent collapse. The thirst for power catches Rakhmonov’s eyes and makes him forget about common sense, forces him to deal with everything suspicious just in case. Otherwise, the condemnation of Daniyar Nabiev does not lend itself to any logic.

What was the danger to society from this 87-year-old God-fearing and virtuous person who did nothing wrong, only instructed young people on the right path?The Tajik authorities saw a “terrorist and extremist” and a “person posing a danger to society” in the person of this wise old man, who devoted his life to the prosperity of the country, and as a result, was sent to prison as a thank you.

The Group of 24 political movement strongly condemns the arrest and detention of Daniyar Nabiyev and demands his immediate release.We also wish to draw the attention of the international community and international human rights organizations to this case in order to condemn this gross violation of human rights and to facilitate the immediate release of Daniyar Nabiev.
