KAZAKHSTAN: 131 administrative prosecutions in 2020. Not only JWs.

[Patiently waiting for Truth]

In 131 known administrative prosecutions in 2020, 112 individuals, three charities and one company were punished for worship meetings, offering religious literature and items (including online), sharing or teaching faith, posting religious material online, or praying in mosques. At least 7 fines were imposed in January 2021. Deputy Chair Anuar Khatiyev of the regime's Religious Affairs Committee refused to discuss why individuals should face prosecution and punishment for exercising their right to freedom of religion or belief.

Muslims, Council of Churches Baptists, Jehovah's Witnesses, a Hare Krishna devotee, and commercial and private sellers were many of the targets of these prosecutions.
Many of the prosecutions were to punish meetings for worship without state permission. Five Muslims were fined in the western city of Zhanaozen on 24 August 2020 for praying the Id al-Adha morning prayers at a car market. Company employees were fined for allowing staff to use rooms for prayer. One Muslim in the capital Nur-Sultan was fined for leading the "unregistered form of Sufism". Council of Churches Baptists – who refuse to seek state permission to exercise their right to freedom of religion or belief – were fined for holding worship meetings.

Certainly a move toward banning religion, BUT not just aimed at JWs.

I'm not sure what anyone would expect in Russia. Their government strikes me as nothing more than a criminal enterprise. A thugocracy.
