28.11.2014   CIVIL SOCIETY ACTIVISTS, Human Rights, JARAYON, Political Detainees, Uzbekistan   No comments

In late November 2014, Mutabar Tadjibayeva, the head of “Fiery Hearts Club”International Human Rights Organization based in France, released her list of 43 political prisoners of Uzbekistan.

According to the human rights activist, they were sentenced to long years in prison for political and religious reasons.

“We support US senators, who recently stood up for defense and release of five Uzbek political prisoners. However, we decided once again to publish a list of the people, who have been kept in prisons of Uzbekistanfor more than 21 years. This list includes new names of political prisoners. Each of them deserves to be considered a political prisoner. I believe it is necessary to mention their names during talks of Western politicians with the Uzbek authorities about the fates of the political prisoners,” Tadjibayeva told “Jarayon”.

Handing Engel – du Tertre (Award of ACAT Foundation to Madam Mutabar Tadjibayeva)

15.11.2014   COURT IN PARIS, Human Rights, JARAYON, Uzbekistan   No comments

Dear friends,

I am excited that a 40-year anniversary of our organization ACAT Foundation is enlightened by this moment full of excitement, happiness and unforgettable emotions.

During our recent Board meeting we have decided to establish an award for the work in the field of human rights protection… but we were faced by a dilemma of coming up with a proper name for this award. On the eve of a 40-year anniversary of our organization we have been thinking about two Protestant women – Hélène Engel and Édith du Tertre who founded ACAT.  Without their efforts we couldn’t have been here today! (I am indeed happy to tell you that today several family members of Hélène Engel and Édith du Tertre are also attending this event). As a tribute to the courage and faith of those two women we decided to name the new award we were establishing Engel – du Tertre Award.

Many Muslims of Uzbekistan have been prosecuted after attending private gatherings of their friends.

I would like to begin our story with the recent case of Uzbek refugee Mirsobir Khamidkariev, who was kidnapped in Moscow in early June 2014. I would remind that this person asked for asylum in Russia as since 2011 the Uzbek Government had internationally searched for him.
