Kazakh President Sends Religion Law for Constitutional Review

By Howard M. Friedman

ADVERTISEMENTS
Forum 18 reported Friday that in Kazakhstan, instead of signing a new Religion Law, President Nursultan Nazarbaev has sent it to the country's Constitutional Council for review.

The law has been criticized by human rights advocates as repressive. (See prior related posting.)
