Al Jazeera: Trouble in Tajikistan (IRPT)

This Al Jazeera feature, titled “Trouble in Tajikistan,” was published on 5 November 2015 at aljazeera.com/features/2015/11/5/trouble-in-tajikistan and appears in the Politics/IRPT section of the country-of-origin library. The archived PDF held in the collection contains only the browser print header and the source URL — the body of the article did not render into the saved file — so the specific factual contents of the feature cannot be summarised from the saved document itself. Based on the title, publication date and the library’s topic tagging, the report is understood to concern the situation in Tajikistan in November 2015, shortly after the forced closure in August–September 2015 of the Islamic Renaissance Party of Tajikistan (IRPT) and the wave of arrests of its members that began on 16 September 2015. Readers needing the full text should consult the original Al Jazeera URL; other English-language sources in this library (HRW, RFE/RL, OCCRP, Jamestown) cover the same events and can be used alongside this reference. This entry is retained as a bibliographic pointer to the original publication rather than as a substantive extract.
