The report of the human rights organization Bir Duino — Kyrgyzstan on the protection of the rights of migrants and their families was found extremist. The lawyer of the organization Erik Iriskulbekov told 24.kg news agency.
According to him, in March 2015, the organization, together with the Russian human rights activists from Memorial, prepared a joint report for the Committee for the Protection of the Rights of Migrants and Their Families. The report dealt with the difficult conditions of the stay of the Kyrgyz migrants in Russia and Kazakhstan, their labor protection and social security.
«The report was the basis for the work of the committee with the government on observance of the obligations on the protection of the rights of migrants and their families. The Committee used this report in its work, recommended taking measures to protect the labor migrants. The government adopted the recommendations in 2016. Based on the materials of the State Committee for National Security, the Prosecutor General’s Office appealed to the Oktyabrsky District Court to recognize the report an extremist,» told Erik Iriskulbekov.
He noted that the court examined two expert evaluations — linguistic and politological.
Both of them say that there is not any call for inciting interethnic, interracial or interethnic conflict in the materials. There are no signs of extremism.

«The experts only point out that the report is one-sided, but it has nothing to do with extremism. However, the judge Dzhanaliev ruled that the report sent to the Committee for the Protection of the Rights of Workers and Their Families was extremist,» Erik Iriskulbekov added.
