¶1. (SBU) UNHCR representative Cesar Dubon called the
Ambassador on August 14 to report that after a joint review
with UNHCR, the Procuracy General rejected Uzbekistan's
request for the extradition of refugee Gabdurafikh
Temirbayev (reftel). Temirbayev has been accepted for
resettlement by Sweden and is expected to leave Kazakhstan
on August 15.
¶2. (SBU) Comment: This is an encouraging development that
shows that when the Kazakhstani interagency process has the
chance to work, it can produce good decisions. End comment.
