Gulnara Karimova's attorney reports about her 'very poor physical condition'

AKIPRESS.COM - Swiss attorney of Gulnara Karimova Grégoire Mangeat reported about ‘arbitrary treatment' and a very poor physical condition of his client. "According to reports made by families of female inmates who have been in contact with Gulnara Karimova, she is ill, her physical condition is poor, and she appears to be put under permanent psychological pressure," the attorney said on Twitter.
Gulnara Karimova is banned from communicating with her attorneys, he said. He reminded the Uzbek authorities banned him from entry to Uzbekistan until 2024.
"When I asked my colleague Fanny Margairaz to travel to Uzbekistan instead, since she had already visited the country many times and enjoyed the confidence of Gulnara Karimova, the Uzbek authorities extended the ban to my colleague, with - it seems - the questionable active assistance of the Swiss federal prosecutors in charge of the proceedings," the attorney said.
"Gulnara Karimova has never been tried under acceptable conditions with regard to the minimum standards governing criminal trials; she has been continuously deprived of her right to an adequate defence; she is being detained arbitrarily," the attorney underscored.
