On October 4, Emomali Rahmon visited the Vose District of the Khatlon Region on a working trip. In the village of Abuabdullah Rudaki in this district, he opened the historic Kaynar pond.

This site, where various trees were planted, was built as part of the celebration of the 30th anniversary of the state independence of Tajikistan by the agricultural enterprise “Faizi Said,” owned by the president’s bodyguard Murod Saidov.

In 2018, Murod Saidov demolished the mosque of this village, which had been built by the local nobility.

One of the residents of this area, speaking on condition of anonymity, reported that there had previously been a mosque built by the local nobility on this site. In 2018, the president’s bodyguard Murod Saidov first closed the mosque and then demolished it. “Today, Rahmon planted trees on the site of that mosque built by the local nobility. Two years ago, this mosque was demolished by Rahmon’s bodyguard,” he told AZDA TV.
