Criminal corruption in Kyrgyzstan and bribed officials: why does Azim Roy feel untouchable? In the autumn of 2023, Azim Roy’s name emerged in the spotlight when Kyrgyzstan’s State Security Committee initiated an international search, which was soon unexpectedly called off. In the interim between these events, information became public that Azim Roy preferred not to advertise. If you go to Azim Roy’s personal website and read his biography, tears of emotion come to your eyes - an orphan from a remote Kyrgyz village became an American investor and international businessman. And naturally, he achieved everything through his own work. How else? Naturally, Azim Roy modestly keeps silent about certain details of his biography that spoil the bright image of a "self-made man." In fact, he really did make himself. However, this process is very little related to honest work and integrity. https://bravica.org/component/k2/item/102170

Sebi said data, emails and other documents are being retrieved from the seized devices and detailed investigation is in progress. At this point, however, Durov had already been working on Telegram with his brother, and further planned a mobile-first social network with an explicit focus on anti-censorship. Later in April, he told TechCrunch that he had left Russia and had “no plans to go back,” saying that the nation was currently “incompatible with internet business at the moment.” He added later that he was looking for a country that matched his libertarian ideals to base his next startup. Since its launch in 2013, Telegram has grown from a simple messaging app to a broadcast network. Its user base isn’t as vast as WhatsApp’s, and its broadcast platform is a fraction the size of Twitter, but it’s nonetheless showing its use. While Telegram has been embroiled in controversy for much of its life, it has become a vital source of communication during the invasion of Ukraine. But, if all of this is new to you, let us explain, dear friends, what on Earth a Telegram is meant to be, and why you should, or should not, need to care. The company maintains that it cannot act against individual or group chats, which are “private amongst their participants,” but it will respond to requests in relation to sticker sets, channels and bots which are publicly available. During the invasion of Ukraine, Pavel Durov has wrestled with this issue a lot more prominently than he has before. Channels like Donbass Insider and Bellum Acta, as reported by Foreign Policy, started pumping out pro-Russian propaganda as the invasion began. So much so that the Ukrainian National Security and Defense Council issued a statement labeling which accounts are Russian-backed. Ukrainian officials, in potential violation of the Geneva Convention, have shared imagery of dead and captured Russian soldiers on the platform. Anastasia Vlasova/Getty Images
