Relatives and children of Shokhida Makhmadjonova have not known for five days where she is, whether she is alive or not.

Shokhida Makhmadjonova is the mother of Tajik blogger Sherzod Makhmadjonov, who lives in Germany and is known as “Abdurakhmon 09.” In a conversation with Azda TV, he reported that employees of the Organized Crime Control Department in Vahdat have not informed relatives for more than four days about Shokhida Makhmadjonova’s whereabouts or the charges against her.

Earlier, Azda TV reported that on February 2, police officers in Vahdat summoned Shokhida Makhmadjonova to the station to collect her mobile phone, which was in their possession. When she arrived at the Organized Crime Control Department on February 3, she was detained.

According to the blogger “Abdurakhmon 09,” the police have not informed her relatives of the reasons for her detention or where she is being held. He also mentioned that on the morning of February 4, his father and grandmother went to the Vahdat police department and asked where Shokhida Makhmadjonova was being held and why she was detained. In response, the police stated that they would provide information about the reasons for her detention and her whereabouts 48 hours later, that is, on February 5.

Shokhida Makhmadjonova’s son reported her detention, but the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Tajikistan has not officially confirmed her detention yet.

According to “Abdurakhmon 09,” relatives have been summoned to the police station and interrogated for several months.

Earlier, media also reported that Shokhida Makhmadjonova faced persecution from the authorities due to her son’s activities. Last year, the management of the central hospital in Vahdat, where she worked as a nurse, forced her to submit a resignation letter.
