Journalist Ydyrys Isakov was again summoned for questioning by the police. He himself told 24.kg news agency.

According to him, the interrogation is related to a video that was posted on TikTok.

«In October 2020, after the riots, I went live. Then I said — we need a woman president. It was known that Sadyr Japarov would come to power. I added that he was not a progressive force, that in general the men in power had not justified our hopes. I don’t back down from my words. The broadcast was long, I answered readers’ questions, someone cut off the part about Sadyr Japarov, edited this piece and posted it on TikTok,» he said.

The journalist Ydyrys Isakov was summoned for interrogation by the police on Sunday. According to the Osh City Department of Internal Affairs, a TikTok user with the nickname Albert posted a video titled «Kyrgyz, wake up, the Uyghur mafia is robbing Kyrgyzstan» last week on TikTok. This video contains an appeal by Ydyrys Isakov.
