According to the expert, a message about the death of Karimova is a stuffing undertaken with the aim of discrediting Mirziyoyev on the eve of the elections. Who is behind this stuffing, he did not explain.

“In general,” concluded Dubnov, “the fate of another relative of the late president - his 49 -year -old nephew Jamshid Karimov, an independent journalist who dared to criticize the authorities, who has been contained in a psychiatric hospital in Samarkand, is more worried today. Report. "

Gulnara Karimova used to work in the Foreign Ministry of Uzbekistan. In different years, she represented the country to the UN and Spain.

Under the control of Karimova were television channels, radio stations and fashion stores. The media called it one of the most influential women of Central Asia.

However, in November 2013, Karimova, according to the media, fell out of disgrace with her father and lost her assets. The media repeatedly appeared appeals made allegedly on behalf of the president’s daughter. They argued that the security forces actually keep her with her daughter under house arrest, forbidding to leave home and communicate with outsiders.
