On June 15, 2026, Asylum Research & Global Assistance (ARGA) successfully completed its registration within the United Nations Secretariat system and was assigned the official United Nations identification number — UN ID 1232417. This status has been confirmed by the corresponding registration documents.

This registration marks an important milestone in ARGA’s institutional development and opens new opportunities for international professional engagement. At the current stage, the organization is awaiting confirmation from a number of specialized agencies and entities within the United Nations system.

The assignment of a UN ID confirms ARGA’s presence within the international expert community and provides a foundation for future participation in consultations, analytical initiatives, and human rights activities at the international level.

ARGA continues to develop as an independent international expert platform bringing together specialists in human rights, international law, compliance, anti-discrimination, sustainable development, and institutional cooperation.

As part of its international commitments, ARGA adheres to the principles of human rights, non-discrimination, transparency, sustainable development, and responsible governance, as reflected in the organization’s corporate policies and institutional standards.
“This is not a final destination but the beginning of a new stage in the organization’s development. Our objective is to build an international expert network capable of effectively protecting human rights, producing high-quality analytical work, and participating in international protection mechanisms when conventional remedies are no longer sufficient,” said Sergei Khrabrykh, CEO of ARGA.

ARGA will continue strengthening its international presence, expanding its expert network, and contributing to international cooperation in the fields of human rights protection, legal assistance, institutional development, and expert analysis.

Interpol Rejects International Wanted Notice as Politically Motivated

Interpol rejects international wanted notice as politically motivated

The General Secretariat of Interpol has refused to issue an international wanted notice for the co-founder of a media project from Kyrgyzstan, stating that the request violated the organization’s rules prohibiting politically motivated persecution.

Published: today

Key Points

The request was rejected as politically motivated.
The request was submitted following a court decision declaring several materials “extremist”.
The individual intends to appeal the decisions, stressing their political nature.

Interpol refused the request from the competent authorities of Kyrgyzstan to issue an international wanted notice for one of the co-founders of an independent media project. According to the organization, the request was politically motivated and contradicted the fundamental principles established in the Interpol Constitution, which prohibits the use of its mechanisms for political purposes.

“The Constitution of Interpol contains strict rules prohibiting the use of our system for political purposes; therefore, the request was rejected,” a representative of the organization stated.

The individual involved described the actions of the national authorities as an abuse of international mechanisms and expressed concerns that such practices damage the country’s reputation and undermine trust in law-enforcement institutions.

According to available information, the request was submitted to Interpol on October 30 — shortly after a court decision that designated the activities and materials of several media platforms as “extremist”. The same ruling also targeted other platforms and individuals. Lawyers and journalists announced their intention to appeal the decisions, pointing to their political nature.

“This is yet another escalation of repressive practices affecting not only those named in the case but broader segments of society — harming the country’s reputation and creating risks of criminalizing uninvolved individuals,” the individual emphasized.

Context and legal framework

According to Article 3 of the Interpol Constitution, the organization must refrain from any activity or intervention of a political, military, religious, or racial nature. Requests falling under these criteria must be rejected during the compliance review.
