Information from the Government
428. The Government of Uzbekistan transmitted two communications,
dated 18 September 2007 and 19 July 2008. In the first the Government provided
information on the case of Abdulaziz Murodullayevich Boymatov, which could constitute
a clarification provided the source did not raise an objection within six months. It is to be
noted that the case of Abdulaziz Murodullayevich Boymatov was registered under the
Russian Federation, where he was arrested.
429. Regarding the communication dated 19 July 2008, the Working Group decided that the
Government’s response was insufficient to constitute clarifications.
Information from sources
430. Information was received from sources regarding the case of Abdulaziz Murodullayevich
Boymatov. The source requested additional time in order to confirm the information provided by
the Government regarding his whereabouts. Therefore, the Working Group decided to extend the
period of consideration of this case, and suspend the six-month rule.
Total cases transmitted, clarified and outstanding
431. Since its establishment, the Working Group transmitted 19 cases to the Government. It
clarified 12 cases, 11 on the basis of information provided by the Government and 1 on the basis
of information provided by the source; 7 remain outstanding.
432. A summary of the situation in the country appears in E/CN.4/2006/56 and Corr.1 and
