Additional information:

Nazgyul Alymkulova was summoned to an interrogation at the State National Security Service of Kyrgyzstan. Previously she posted on a social network a video where, using a special app, she had edited a video to put in the face of the president of Kyrgyzstan. Alymkulova also wrote that “the rapper had a rapid reaction to the video”; and that it would be better if [the president] also reacted to the situation in the country, implying the severe epidemiological situation with the COVID-19. After the publication of the post, unidentified persons attempted to hack the comedy site Stand Up.
