Hojiakbar Nosirov, the author of the ACTIVIST project, who was imprisoned for 15 days by the court on April 8 for his video about the presence of carmine substance in yogurts, therefore they are forbidden, appeared in public for the first time after serving the administrative prison sentence.
Although the blogger was released on April 23, he did not continue his project, which led to the spread of various rumors on social networks that a criminal case was opened against him and he died.
Khayot Shamsutdinov, the PGO press secretary, said that these rumors are false in response to Kun.uz inquiry.
Hojiakbar Nosirov appeared in public for the first time since he was imprisoned for 15 days through a video message posted on his Instagram page on May 11. In the video, the blogger expressed his gratitude to those who supported him.
“I’m fine, I’m released. As written in many Telegram channels, I have not died, nor have criminal cases been opened against me for fraud and extortion.
Of course, there’s a reason I haven’t talked about my release. So, I hope you understand correctly.
As for what happened, whatever happens, happens for good.
I saw those who supported me, received videos, wrote comments, and generally tried to provide material and moral support, thank you all. To be honest, I was very happy,” the blogger says.
