70-year-old Tajik journalist Mukhamadi Sultan is a native of the Gorno-Badakhshan Autonomous Region. Recently, he has reacted several times with posts to the illegal actions of the State National Security Committee and other law enforcement agencies in Khorog and GBAO.

During a peaceful protest action from November 25-28, 2021, in the city of Khorog, three people were killed and 17 were injured, which caused a resonance both within the country and beyond; the situation in GBAO remains tense.

Tajikistan’s law enforcement agencies have detained several well-known and influential figures in the region and subjected dozens of civil society activists to persecution and pressure.
