On April 1, the lawer of Gulnara Karimova (daughter of the first President of Uzbekistan Islam Karimov) Grégoire Mangeat posted on his Twitter that Gulnara Karimova is in the Zangiota women’s prison colony Nr. 21. with hashtag "Karimova".

"#Karimova Just arrived at Zangiota women’s prison colony Nr. 21. Trying to obtain acceptable conditions for our client’s meeting", - wrote on social media.

Following day, she posted on his Twitter "#Karimova Zangiota women’s prison colony Nr. 21. Second day". However, there is not information that he met Gulnara Karimova or not.

In July last year, 46-year-old Gulnara Karimova, on December 18, 2017, who was sentenced to 10 years in prison, was replaced for house arrest with 5 years term. Karimova should had served her punishment at the place of residence of his daughter Iman, observing a number of restrictions: not to leave her home, not to use the means of communication and the Internet. In addition, she was obliged to pay damages to the state.

However, in early March, the General Prosecutor’s Office of Uzbekistan reported that on March 5, Gulnara Karimova was transferred from house arrest to a general regime colony. However, the main supervisory body did not report on which particular colony the eldest daughter of Islam Karimov was kept.

Moreover, as it was noted in the statement of the Prosecutor General’s Office, “convicted Gulnara Karimova systematically violated the obligations established by the court in the course of serving the sentence, as a result of which she was transferred to a penal colony”.

In addition, earlier, three large mobile companies Telia, Vimpelcom and MTS admitted that they gave multimillion-dollar bribes to Gulnara Karimova to get into the telecommunications market of Uzbekistan. After these statements, a month ago, the US authorities formally accused Gulnara Karimova, accusing her of “bribery” and “money laundering” in the amount of 865 million dollars.
