§ 01 Overview

Case Summary

Tilekmat Kurenov is a Kyrgyz activist known for his outspoken stance on sovereignty, democracy, and resource protection. Previously convicted on politically motivated charges in 2021 and again targeted during the 2022 “Kempir-Abad case,” he fled Kyrgyzstan in fear of persecution. In 2025, he was abducted from the UAE and forcibly returned to Kyrgyzstan, where he is now held in detention. His case illustrates the cross-border reach of political persecution and the authorities’ determination to silence dissent.
