Uzbek forces accused of journalist's murder

Uzbekistan's security services were behind the murder last October of the Kyrgyzstan journalist Alisher Saipov, according to a report by the International Crisis Group. He was shot dead outside his office in the Kyrgyz city of Osh, near the Uzbek border. Before his death, Saipov was regarded as an enemy of the Uzbek state, as his friend Natalia Antelava wrote at the time of his death. (Via BBC)
