Turkmen journalist Soltan Achilova was threatened on July 31 by the same man who threatened her life two days earlier, on July 29. The man identified himself to her as a police officer tasked to watch her wherever she goes, and again warned her against taking photos, or she will be “finished.”
Achilova, 68, reports for RFE/RL’s Turkmen Service, known locally as Azatlyk Radiosy, and her work appears regularly on the Turkmen-language website.
