Rahmon’s convoy was pelted with eggs, and his bodyguard was beaten (VIDEO)

In the evening of September 28 this year, a scuffle broke out between members of the government delegation and representatives of the political movement “Group 24” in one of the shawarma cafes in Berlin.

In videos obtained by Azda TV, three representatives of the Tajikistan government delegation can be seen buying shawarma in a cafe in Berlin, the capital of Germany, while opposition members stand behind them filming on their phones.

According to eyewitnesses of the incident, when the government delegation members saw the opposition activists, one of them introduced himself as a taxi driver, while another claimed to be a cafe employee.

However, the third individual, who is reportedly a bodyguard of Emomali Rahmon, saw that he was being filmed and kicked the phone out of the opposition member’s hands. After that, a fight broke out between the parties.

Video of the moment of the fight:

Behruz Tagoyzoda, an activist of the political movement “Group 24,” told Azda TV: “The person who started the fight with the members of ‘Group 24’ was one of Emomali Rahmon’s bodyguards. From this situation, one can conclude that Rahmon does not value anyone, not even those who protect his life. As these poor people were not even given enough money to have dinner in a good and modern restaurant.”

This is not the only incident that has occurred with Rahmon during his visit to Germany.

When the convoy of authoritarian President Emomali Rahmon was moving towards the residence of the German president, members of the political movement “Group 24” shouted “dictator” and threw eggs at his car.

In photographs later circulated, Emomali Rahmon can be seen exiting the egg-smeared car looking very upset.

From September 28 to 30, negotiations will take place in Berlin between the heads of Central Asian states and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and President Frank-Walter Steinmeier.

Against the backdrop of President Emomali Rahmon’s visit to Germany, on September 28 and 29, the Tajik opposition organized protests in front of the Tajik Embassy in Germany and the German president’s residence in Berlin.
