The Uzbek dissidents, who captured the Swiss villa Gulnara Karimova, found 60 paintings, allegedly stolen from museums
, the fate of Nemiloster to the eldest daughter of the President of Uzbekistan Gulnar Karimova. Until recently, she was the most influential man in the country after her father: she owned television channels and radio stations, she, not stinting, spent fashion weeks, and her songs, including the department recorded with Gerard, sounded everywhere. But the princess quarreled with relatives, the accounts of her media holding were frozen, television stations have stopped working, and now a new scandal: in her house in Geneva, paintings were discovered allegedly illegally taken from the Uzbek museums. Five of the Five Uzbek dissidents found paintings, which on December 23 captured a building bought by Karimova in 2009 for $ 18 million. One of them, Safar Bekchon, published photos of the interiors of the mansion, gold jewelry and diamonds of Gulnara Karimova, Bentley Car, the Koran of the 18th century, decorated with precious stones, and sixty paintings.

First of all, the attention of art historians was attracted by the canvases
of Genghis Akhmarov “Beauty”, “Uyghur beauty” and “Girl with a mirror”, three works by
Viktor Ufimtsev (1889-1964), works by
Ruzi Choriev and other famous artists. Safar Bekchon claims that some frames have museum metal tablets.

According to the employee of the Expertise Department of the Uzbek Ministry of Culture and Sports, who commented on our radio station, there were no legal grounds for the export of paintings from Uzbekistan. "Permissions for exporting outside Uzbekistan paintings written before 1964 are not given. Even if you are the owner of the picture, you cannot take it out. This is a law that extends to everyone. For such works as belonging to the hand of Genghis Akhmarov and Viktor Ufimtsev, the rule is even more tattered. Even if the paintings of these authors are written later than 1964, they are forbidden, since their removal is prohibited, since they are forbidden, since they are forbidden. These are masterpieces. "
Among the paintings found in the house of Karimova are the "grenade" of Leo Reznikov (1928-2003). The artist’s son told our radio that the canvas was sold to the Tashkent State Museum in 1990 without the right to resale. Gulnara Karimova, however, claims that the paintings are her property.
Gulnara Karimova, who has repeatedly accused Uzbekistan’s security in organizing the campaign to discredit it, announced that dissidents received the key to the Geneva villa from this intelligence service. Safar Bekchon refuses to say where he took the key. Karimova claims that the key was handed over to the SNB by her younger sister Lola. It became known about the quarrel of the sisters when Lola Karimova last autumn told the BBC that she had not been talking with Gulnara for 12 years. On December 20, in
an interview with the British Gardian, Gulnara reported that her father was extremely upset by the revelations of Lola, and it was with this interview that the expanse in the family began. At the same time, she emphasized that Islam Karimov did not support any of the daughters in the conflict. And her mother, who rarely appears in public, Gulnara Karimova accused that she also builds intrigues against her.
At the same time, according to Gulnara, various officials work with them who are fabricating publications on the Internet and showing them Islam Karimov to set up against her. Apparently, it refers to articles signed by Politician Usman Khaknazarov,
who said, in particular, that the President of Uzbekistan beat his eldest daughter (Gulnara Karimova categorically denies this). It is assumed that Khaknazarov is an employee of the SNB.
Gulnara Karimova accused the special services of trying to poison her, as well as her son in 2011. She provided a “Hardian” certificate of blood test in the German clinic indicating the significant content of heavy metals.
Recently, Gulnara Karimova writes more frankly on
Twitter , sharing family secrets. In particular, she announced that her sister would have a
good state, which was written by Bilan’s economic magazine, who entered Lola Karimov-Tileeva on the list of the richest people in the country, who was published in Switzerland.
But the state of Gulnara Karimova, judging by what was found in Geneva, is more significant than previously considered. The police, who visited the captured villa, did not expel the opposition. According to Swiss laws, this can only be done by court decision. At the entrance to the building, the poster is now hanging: "This villa belongs to the daughter of Dictator Karimov."
