In Ust-Kamenogorsk, civil activist Marat #Baygulin was arrested for allegedly "violating the law on peaceful assemblies."
The authorities are preemptively arresting and trying to intimidate activists (including taking receipts from them that they will not participate
7/9
in a peaceful protest on November 20) in order to isolate them before November 20 and prevent them from participating in peaceful protests. Thus, the authorities violate their international obligations in the field of #humanrights and

once again demonstrate that there is no "New #Kazakhstan".
UPDATE: Venera #Zhanbayeva and Sandugash #Kantarbayeva were also illegally arrested for 15 days.
