  • This Is a Highly Dangerous Precedent"
    FORUM 18 NEWS SERVICE, Oslo, Norway http://www.forum18.org/ The right to believe, to worship and witness The right to change one's belief or religion The right to join together and express one's belief This article was published by F18News on: 3 February 2009 KAZAKHSTAN: "This is a highly dangerous precedent" By Mushfig Bayram, Forum 18 News Service <http://www.forum18.org> Kazakhstan has resumed jailing Baptists, Forum 18 News Service has learnt. Yuri Rudenko from Almaty Region was the third unregistered Baptist pastor to be jailed for three days for refusing to pay fines for unregistered worship. Baptists point out that this breaks Kazakhstan's Constitution, but officials have refused to discuss this with Forum 18. The jailing took place as Elizaveta Drenicheva, a Russian working as a missionary for the Unification Church (commonly known as the Moonies), was jailed for two years for sharing her beliefs. Other religious believers who strongly disagree with her beliefs, as well as human rights defenders, are alarmed by the jail sentence. "This is a highly dangerous precedent," one Protestant who preferred not to be identified told Forum 18. "It seems to me that any believer who preaches about sin and how to be saved from it could be convicted in the same way." Baptist churches in Akmola region have also been raided and their members questioned, and another Baptist pastor is facing the threat of jail tomorrow (4 February). Kazakhstan has punished a third unregistered Baptist pastor in Almaty Region with three-day imprisonment, Forum 18 News Service has learnt.

  • International Service Learning Case Study
    ALLA BELYAKINA THE HUMAN BEING AS A LEGEND (translated by Dina Mukhamedkhan) USA. Missoula 2005 - 2006 Kayum Mukhamedkhanov became a legend in his lifetime, a dignified citizen of Kazakhstan and a profound scholar whose research is held in highest regard today in Kazakhstan. During the political repression of the intelligentsia in the 1950-s my father and our family suffered severely. He was condemned and imprisoned for the research on the “Abai’s school of followers” that he implemented under the supervision of his teacher Mukhtar Auezov. Kayum Mukhamedkhanov upheld as a supreme life value a Dignity of every human being, high moral principles, humane attitude that he himself demonstrated in everything he did: in dealing with people, in writing, in research, in revealing many names from the oblivion, in teaching, in public meetings. Recently his colleagues, followers, friends have written a book of reminiscences about this amazing person. A young and talented literary critic and a journalist Alla Belyakina from Kayum’s hometown Semipalatinsk contributed to this book with her breath taking writing on Kayum. She backed up her writing with the original historical and the archives’ materials and her interviews. I am pleased to bring to your attention this translation – a part from that book. I consider it to be of utmost importance and value to present to your attention this work: we really need cases and examples of human values and citizenship. I would like to express my great appreciation and gratitude to my dear friend Kimberly Crook for her generous help in making the English translation more idiomatic and somewhat clearer.
