Lawmaker condemns law enforcement bodies for arrest of man for social media posting

AKIPRESS.COM - Blogger Avtandil Jorobekov was arrested for 2 months for posts on social media, said MP Janar Akayev at the parliament session.
"This is wrong to put someone in jail for social media post. I can't even imagine. The only thing we can brag about today is freedom of speech. Our people can freely go for rallies and express their opinions on the internet. We must keep that. He should have been just warned, not jailed for a social media post," Akayev said.
Admin of popular social media page BezpredelKG Avtandil Jorobekov was arrested on November 24 for inciting to ethnic hatred. He was taken into custody until January 24, 2020.
