Mohira Ortiqova: Let’s fight together for life without tortures!
In January 2009, when my husband Ortikov was imprisoned for six years charged with “human trafficking”, I still believed that justice would prevail, and my husband would be acquitted because in our prospering independent Uzbekistan things could not be otherwise, achievements of which had been continuously covered by newspapers and television.
However, in May 2009, after I learned that tortures were applied against my husband to force him to plead guilty of spying for Britain, I began doubting that Uzbekistan has fair courts and lives of people are well protected.
