As reported by Pamir Daily News, the mayor of Khorog, Rizo Nazarzoda, in his address to the city administration, which was shown on the local television channel “Badakhshan,” called on Mahmadbokir Mahmadbokirov to surrender to the authorities and urged the youth to refrain from night patrols.

According to Nazarzoda, “Khorog’s organized crime groups” hinder the development of the region, and therefore the population should stand against them.

“He called Mamadbokirov the leader of an organized criminal group and urged him to answer to the full extent of the law. The newly elected mayor also called on the youth of Khorog to abandon the practice of night patrols, as, according to him, they would be held criminally liable,” the report notes.
