The governor of Strict Regime Prison YaS 3/5 in Khujand refuses to explain why Jehovah's Witness prisoner of conscience Shamil Khakimov â aged 72 and in urgent need of specialised medical care â cannot be transferred to hospital. On 15 February in his absence, Sugd Regional Court rejected Khakimov's latest appeal. Jailed Ismaili leader from Mountainous Badakhshan, Muzaffar Davlatmirov, was transferred to General Regime Prison YaS 3/6 in Yavan in August 2022. Jailed Islamic Renaissance Party member, Zubaydullo Rozik, was again sent to punishment cell for having a Koran.
