From now on, anyone can file a complaint or proposal in regards with the ministry. That said, only the Uzbek version of the “reception office” is functioning; the Russian language version of the website does not have that page.
The International human rights organization “Fiery Hearts Club” would like to express its gratitude to current Executive Director of Front Line Defenders, Mary Lawlor, for her work in human rights, for her support of human rights defenders in Uzbekistan. We express our gratitude for her help in the liberation of political prisoners in particular, the head of the “Fiery Hearts Club ” Mutabar Tadjibayeva.
In August 2007 while Mutabar Tadjibayeva was in prison in Uzbekistan, Front Line Defenders sent the flowers to her for the birthday and the prison administration was forced to give this gift to Mutabar Tadjibayeva. These flowers were able to penetrate the Uzbek penitentiary system. It was a shock for the dictatorship regime in Uzbekistan. Because of that simple gift the prison administration have stopped mistreating her.
We thank Mary Lawlor for her fight for the rights of human rights defenders and political prisoners. Front Line Defenders was one of the first organizations that responded and supported our campaign of visiting of political prisoners in prisons. The civil society of Uzbekistan expresses its gratitude to Mary Lawlor for everything that was done for the human rights movement in Uzbekistan ! Front Line Defenders is one of the organizations who reacts first on the violation of human rights in Uzbekistan. We hope to continue our cooperation with Front Line Defenders and the future Executive Director Andrew Anderson.
Sincerely,
Mutabar Tadjibayeva
The head of IHRA
“Fiery Hearts Club”
In the morning of 22 September 2016 International Partnership for Human Rights (IPHR), the International Federation for Human Rights, Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch organized the side event “Human rights in Uzbekistan after Karimov” at the OSCE Human Dimension Implementation Meeting (HDIM) in Warsaw.
The International Human Rights Organization “Fiery Hearts Club”, Coordination Council of the Civil Society “Alternative Uzbekistan”, Public Council “Service of the Fatherland” call the government of Uzbekistan and the international organizations to pay attention to the current human rights situation in Uzbekistan.
The news of Islam Karimov’s illness was widely discussed in Uzbekistan as well as abroad. For some time the government did not provide any information regarding the president’s health, which, in turn, provoked growing tension in the country.
Karimov had remained in power for 27 years. Young people who were born and raised during his rule comprise the majority of the 32-million population. Many of these young people cannot imagine their life without Karimov and are therefore panicking.
To UN Special Rapporteur on Freedom of Expression,
to OSCE and to International organizations for the
protection of the rights of journalists
Uzbekistan is a country with an authoritarian regime where the human rights are systematically violated. The government uses all methods of control, such as psychological pressure, blackmailing, the use of local institutions (Mahalla) to hinder the work of human rights defenders, deprivation of basic living sources, threats and arrests on trumped-up charges.
In 2016, Reporters without Borders (RWB) has published a new edition of the World Press Freedom Index, which shows increased number of government attacks against journalist, certain ideologies and particular groups of interest. This chart reflects the degree of freedom of actions of local journalists and represented by 180 different countries of the world. According to the regional index, Europe (19.8 place) is the area where the journalists are free.
