By empty (7/12/2005 issue of the CACI Analyst)
Kazakhstan turned an Uzbek human rights activist, who Uzbekistan claims to be one of the instigators of the May 13 violence in the Uzbek city of Andizhan, over to the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) on Tuesday, the UNHCR said. The activist, Lutfullo Shamsudinov, was charged with terrorism and of \"spreading information with the aim of provoking panic among the population\" by Uzbekistan. He received refugee status from the UNHCR late last month.Visit also
