Tajikistan Highlights
Free Expression & the LawImruz News has been ordered to pay 50,000 somoni (US$10,500) for reporting that Russian authorities freed the son of a Tajik government official from jail in exchange for two Russian pilots being released from a Tajik prison.
CensorshipTajik authorities must lift their order blocking domestic access to at least three news websites that have reported critically about issues such as energy shortages, rising unemployment, and human rights abuses, the Committee to Protect Journalists said today. The order, which also applied to Facebook, is at least the fourth such ban since the beginning of 2012.
CensorshipA Tajik court has decided to close a leading human rights organization in Tajikistan. The Association of Young Lawyers investigates torture and serves as an advocate for the rights of army conscripts and other vulnerable groups. It was shut down on what appear to be minor charges.
