This report (in Russian), based on an interview by RFE/RL's Kyrgyz Service with the Kyrgyz Interior Ministry and the Ukrainian Embassy in Bishkek, contradicts an earlier tweet that says police detained Crimean Tatar leader Mustafa Dzhemilev for three hours at the Bishkek airport. It appears instead that an aide to Dzhemilev was detained because police said his name was the same as a wanted criminal. RFE/RL's Kyrgyz Service will have an interview with Dzhemilev later tonight.
