KULOB, October 2, 2008, Asia-Plus -- Bahrom Habibov, head of the farming unit Khoja Partov in Khatlon’s Vose district and former chief frontier post # 8 deployed in Khatlon’s Hamadoni district, has got a jail term of 27 years.
The Military Board of the Supreme Court on September 30 ruled that Bahrom Habibov be given a jail term of 27 years and that he should serve it in a high-security penal colony. The sentence followed his conviction on charges brought against him under the provisions of 19 articles of Tajikistan’s Penal Code, including drug trafficking.
Speaking in an interview with Asia-Plus, Alfattoh Roziqov, deputy Khatlon prosecutor in charge of the Kulob region, said that Bahrom Habibov was detained on January 7, 2008, following evidences given by arrested drug traffickers F. Sargardonov and N. Zarifov.
“Habibov was simultaneously head of the farming unit Khoja Partov in Vose (since 1999) and chief of frontier post # 8 in Hamadoni (since April 21, 2000),” said the prosecutor. “He was dismissed from the post of chief of the frontier post in 20003 but he reinstated in his position in 2005.”
In addition to drug-trafficking charges, Habibov was charged with unauthorized seizure of lands and illegal establishment of private market.
